Default So I finally have a Manual Transmission!!

So after almost 2 years of owning my Teg and roughing it with the Automatic Transmission, I finally bought a banged up 95 LS and stripped her down. all in all I get a hell of a deal, it came with a perfectly running Engine, Tranny, Suspension, MSD Ignition System, Full Stainless Steel Exhaust, and a small stereo system. all for the lovely price of 500.00! who could pass up a deal like that?

some people may ask so why did you buy the car knowing you wouldnt want the Auto Tranny, well I have 2 reasons, main one being I was desperate for another car because some soccer mom totaled my previous car and since I have kids that are in school trying to get around would not be easy. and well the other being that Cisco is a Transmission Tech so this would be not big obstacle for for us., however I must say that from now on we will stick to RWD Manual Conversion.dont get me wrong it was worth the blood, sweat and tears but damn it was a bitch.

When I cranked her up and took her for a spin, it was amazing what a diffrence this made, it is like I just went and bought a new car.

I am in love

I want to thank accord95 for his advise and pics.

Michele

yes it came with the title but it has alot of roof damage so we have no intention on fixing it. We wanted just the Tranny. I have the motor if anyone is interested.

accord95 - yes the pics helped out alot, I think he ended up welding it in.
