Sounds like you got a pretty good buy on that one. You should be able to get a transmission from that Maritime Salvage Yard outside Truro. OTOH could be a summers past time for you

PS I guess I'll have to make a DRL module for mine to comply with Roddney's new law. Mot too difficult I picked up a relay at "The Source" (radio shack whatever) that will do the job.

I figured it was a pretty good deal willis,I was just thinking of pulling the tranny and replacing 5th but the old thing is noisy anyhow so I think I will call maritime and see what they have,they usually have good prices.thats some new law isn't it,another step towards a communist country.

I called maritime willis and they have one of those mazda trannies and I would say thats whats in it from what kevin at maritime said,$500 not a bad price.I put some new flex lines and hard lines on it yestarday,I don't do much highway driving so it will probably be a 4 spd for awhile anyhow.

I ran the vin,3:55 open,nothing special,I will be on the hunt for a posi 8.8 carrier once I get all the other small stuff done,I finished the brakes up today so I could drive it,couple of new flex lines,calipers and a few hard lines.grand total into the truck is $1020.not bad for a drivable 4x4.

well I think I'll stick with the 5spd,it won't get much abuse as long as I own it,trips to and from central will be the hardest thing it will ever see,my days of pounding my daily driver are over,cost way too much.I still think I'll be swapping bodies in a year or two,put a 73 to 79 style on it,keep the fuelie 302 and 5 spd with the ttb front end,should make a nice truck then.
