I installed a replacement transmission in the 71.
I may have overfilled the trans. Would the excess trans oil leak out the axle and front seals or does the presence of leaks mean I need to replace the seals?? |

Just and FYI on insurance Haggerty never asked me about other drivers, just that the car was garaged, and I have another daily driver insured.

I just applied with Haggerty. They wanted details on all drivers in the household. They denied coverage because there too many drivers and not enough other daily drivers. |

Strange we have two daily drivers and two classics with five drivers in the household insured by Hagerty. After thinking about it the kids didn't drive yet when I started with them. Maybe that is the reason. They are all in college now so none of them is driving much anyway. |
