I guess we'll find out. Not much I can do other than see what happens.

Gasoline may not be around much then when that time comes for you.

With the way the world is turning so fast now days and going high tech with everything.

You may have to covert it into a Battery green machine or Natural Gas vehicle too keep it on the road then:

I don't know about you Orich but I'm glad I won't live to see that day. I love torque. I love the sweet rumble of a gas motor in the air. And try to make a "green" vehicle launch like Bobby's truck! Ain't gonna happen.

I googled it Tro. The numbers are very impressive to say the least. I know there is another car out there that the name begins with a T. Can't remember it off hand. It's supposedly very impressive also. I heard they released all their patents recently. But an all electric car won't have the ear candy.

Soon I hope. My AOD is in pieces waiting for me to break down and take it to AAMCO. I realized that I don't really know what the heck I'm doing inside an Automatic Transmission. I might have been able to do it if it wouldn't have fallen apart on me. But I've got really no idea what to do next so... As soon as I get a few extra bucks I'm gonna have the shop finish it. Then I'll have a warranty too.

How 'bout help from a YOUTUBE video? Got to be some there. Also, I've heard in the past some trannys have to be vertical during at least part of their assembly. Hope this helps.

You should've bought the ATSG manual for it beforehand.

I got the Haynes manual for it. It's great for step by step. But it didn't come apart in order. So everything is kinda screwed. I don't know, I might keep trying to do it myself.
