Oh and here's one pic I completely forgot to post this morning.

How bout a brand new Ford pedal assembly? I always like to use these rather than rebuild old ones. About $120, but bolt it in and go. The old one was worn a little into the bracket itself on the clutch arm side.

Alright... I'm on my way home. We ran into some issues and I gotta finish up tomorrow. We got the trans in it and new balanced driveshafts in it. I gotta cut the hole in the carpet and do the steering column tomorrow.

I need a reverse light connector if anyone has one.. Lol

Anyways, here's some pics.

New Valair kevlar/ceramic clutch






And a good friend of ours, Roy, came to help us get through our sleep deprivation. Lol

So Travis, if I can get all the parts together and am willing to drive to Austin with lots of beer, what are the chances we could do this swap? I am talking like Springtime? I am actually serious. I am willing to do all of the hard work, but just want someone with knowledge in case I run into problems, which are inevitable! I am guessing my auto won't last much past the 200k mile mark.

Just head due east and stop when you get to Columbus. We can wrangle up a good crew. Plenty of room for that TT as well!

Food, beer, shop, tunes, BSing, and wrenching. What else can a guy ask for?! As long as Alex doesn't man the radio again. Lol
