Paul, I didn't realize those rear parts were that much money. I'm going to take a real close look now.

Steve, thanks. This was one of those cases of being in the right place at the right time I guess.

Pat, thanks. That is good info. I bet you are right. The transmission is black and has a deep pan on it with a drain plug, so it is somebodies built tranny. I don't think they ever got as far as actually driving the car because it looks like a lot of things are unfinished yet........like no shifter was installed. I have the feeling they put break in time on the engine and that was it. There are a couple of B&M decals on the car so that makes sense. Plus, the fluids are all extremely clean.

Pat, do you have a feeling about the slop in the rear clearances?

Don
