also got a question about the tranny mount, i recently bought a 4spd trans off here, not sure what its out of but the trans mount that bolts to the car, the holes dont line up to the rubber insert on the tranny the insert doesnt even fit inside of the mount, does that mean the tranny is out of a truck? if so i need to try to find a 510 rubber trans mount?

havent worked on it much due to moving, should be in the new house in few days then back to working on the dime. on the plus side i went up noth today to meet up with (DatWifey) and picked up both pedals and the chrome trim for the hood, also on the way back picked up the driveline, so just need to figure out the trans mount problem and put sh!t on.

got some liquid nail for the seams should work just fine, then lots of more sanding and por 15 will go down.

Liquid nails?!? Really?? I would spend a few bucks extra for real automotive seam sealer. Jus sayin.  :rolleyes:

yeah a body shop near my house uses it and said it lasts longer then normal seam sealer and at 2.39 a tube over the 19.00 tube i cant complain.

I have a manifold that needs to be de-smogged and needs the downpipe flange bolts removed. Its all yours if you want it... in Parkland.

 

cool i shoot you a message, ill give you that rear view mirror if you need one still too.
