Parallel story,,I took apart a '48 Olds to make a modern safer driver.I pulled the Mtr/trans,straight 8.I tried everything to sell them,,yep, even ebay.No takers,,so I crushed them.I always knew someone somewhere could use them.But as reality has it I'
ve saved scores of engines trans rear ends,, only to look at them after setting up for years and they rusted and ruined.
