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 |

I have a question about Shop labor. On my teener, its got a 1.7 motor, thats been done by a local shop. Do you think he kept records on what he did? I have the the invoice in my "big book of teener stuff"
Its clear to me he did atleast new barrels, as I have those. And I think that is when it got converted to Carbs. I'd like to know the specs on what he did. Would he still have that inforation? it ws done in 2000. I don't take work to a shop unless I can't do it. If I can't do it, I take it the shop and I stand out of the professional's way. I've "tested" a couple local shops on stupid questions, going in before hand and getting there details on simple shit like a Starter change, while playing the yokel. If they pass, I figure they ain't going to bend me on the other stuff. |
