Was rooting around in the "donated 1974 2.0 and found a bill in the center console from 12/99.
The guy spent $2000 on clutch, tranny R&R with new seals, shifter bushings, etc. at one of the local P-car shops. One known for charging a lot. When I swap motors I guess I will swap trannys too. Actually, it will make it easier to leave the tranny on the motor. dr |

QUOTE Unless you do the labour yourself it is going to cost ya! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I just picked my car up from Brad Mayuer's shop today. I spent ~$850 on misc small things and brake work. I don't have a problem paying for quality work & parts. As I get to know these cars better I will do more of my own wrench work. But for anything I know is over my head I like to go to the ones that know what they are doing. I have learned that going cheap on a repair is ok, but don't expect it to last and don't get upset when it fails agian. To me the hard part is finding the right people that know what they are doing and give a crap about their work. I know I will never get out the $$ I put in to this car, but this is true for any car you own. - Garold |
