Didja check the fluid level? That would be a nice freebie if it was just low With that kind of mileage and burning smell though I'd say you're in the market for a tranny.

There might be a place similar to this in the Beckley or Charleston areas but in Fairmont there's a place called Pick-up City. They're a car/truck "recycler". Basically a very well organized salvage yard that's in a warehouse. They have the parts removed and crated up already usually. I haven't personally bought a tranny or engine from them, but I know people who have and they were happy with the price and the product.

Auto and truck parts - Pick-UP City

Also, I don't know how far this extends (distance-wise) but they offer "free regional delivery" to transmission shops, car dealers, garages, etc. So, if you have a trans shop doing the work, they might deliver it to the shop for free...

Good luck and keep us posted on how it goes!
