Hi Guy,

Have you decided on transmission yet, or is it all pie in the sky until you get the house buttoned up?

John, I'm going with a wide ratio David Kee Toploader(after the casa in complete).
What are you wasting time posting here for? You should be finalizing your stradegy for the Kirkham deal-of-the-century that will end in about four hours. I'd go with the last minute bid tactic. I bet the car goes for less than 41k.

OK, so what gear ratio in the diff? I want to do some highway cruising so I'm trying to decide on Trans, rear end ratio, etc. I see from David's post that a TKO takes some cutting to fit, I wonder about a Richmond 5 speed. Will your shifter position be like the 289 cars or like the 427 cars?

SFCJ,

Hey, quality doesn't come cheap...unless you are SFCJ and steal the car...

John,

Still working on your deal...maybe it would just be better if we talked on the phone. Every time I try sit down and write to you, I get side tracked (we call it feeding alligators around here; some people call it putting out fires.) Too many alligators; not enough time. When would be a good time to call you? Or, if you would like, you can always call me. I'll tell them to put you through. The car is still a good deal right now on e-bay so let me know what you want to do or when you are free.

At the price I just looked at plus the differential, halfshafts, etc. to make a roller it looks like its getting pretty close to your everyday buy it now price. I'll send you my phone number on the CC private message and the CC email. You can call me at work Monday thru Thursday and at home almost any other time. OR like the header says call me now.

John
