I apologize for not reading the 622 previous pages and I'm sure this has been addressed. I hope the motor, transmission and other systems are not overlooked.
This reminds me of back when stores used to sell suits with two pairs of pants so it could serve as a sports coat as well as a suit coat. I'll bet not too many of you remember this, but it was a common practice way back when.
I got me a nice, brand new, wool, top of the line, suit like this, for almost $100. I smoked, at the time and accidentally burned a large hole in the front of the coat, ruining it beyond repair.
I hope you don't do all this work and burn a hole in your coat.
I apologize for not reading the 622 previous pages....
Well, I am just shocked! Lol...
I don't blame anyone for not wanting to start at the beginning. That's a lot of reading to do...
I also hope I don't burn a hole in my coat!
Transmission I replaced a number of years ago. Engine still runs good, but it wouldn't hurt to have a little freshening up.
Engine is a standard Chevy 454, and the transmission is a standard Turbo 400.
The transmission is not difficult to replace, nor expensive, if I do the work of remove and replace.
Engine is same deal. More difficult for R&R, but depending on how it's freshened, can be reasonably priced or outrageous.
