thanks so much guys... ive been working on the car... and ive got my transmission back together, with the brake and slipper clutch reinstalled and im getting ready to mount it on the chassis.... ive got a little chassis cleaning to do while its all apart and easy to reach. im looking forward to driving this thing... my new glow starter is really nice... starts in 3 or 4 pulls now... (unfortunatly i only got to start it a few times before i toasted my diff). Thanks amsterdam.
