Ain't happenin'. It sounds like I'll just be passing on buying this car if I can't replace the ring/pinion. I'll just continue my search for an interim driver while my other projects are "down". See #5 in my original post.

Thanks to EVERYONE who has read, pondered, and responded. Even if I don't take your advice I'm indebted to you for your efforts.
