Re: Result of no self control at an auction
Those pic's kinda remind of a "Where's Waldo" picture.
How did you drive home?, even the front seat was full of stuff.
That must have been a fun day, some nice stuff there.

Re: Is this normal?
Thanks for the insight, wish I understood these tranny's better.

Re: Is this normal?
I'm not a transmission expert, so this might be a silly question, could it have had an overdrive and then removed at some time and this could be why it's driving this way?

Re: Bubbas hot rods ignitions
The best way to get in touch with Jim is to e-mail or PM him.
That PH# is no good.
This should be a good one 317-487-9460 I believe he's in the shop only a few days a week.
