I like the way you think...I may have to stand on the corner with a sign for a week or two to afford it though...Might as well do a 4:1 gear set while your in there

I’m sorry, I mighta trailed off a bit just there...

We have been hitting it with different cleaners and polishes in between projects. It's hard to get a good pic in here but the paints in pretty good shape..on 95% or so..Take a break from all this mechanical work and wax the outside. I’m dying to know how well it will clean up!
I started pulling the case, removing drive flanges and such...there are some issues. Should have it apart tomorrow.if you run the TC in neutral does it still grind? if not then you could run it in drive and maybe get a small feel for if the tranny isn't toast
I was going to head to the bank and add Georg as a joint account holder and go from there hehe. He will be in touch later today. Hopefully he has a rebuildable one laying around and I'll pick it up and a TT kit.That’s a bummer!! What’s your plan of action?
OMG that is uuuugllyyyy. At least you can fix it however you want.''Twas weeks before Christmas..
Ground covered in frost
The sound in the air...
3F with open exhaust
A squeeze of the thumb
A shift of the lever
From under the rig arose such a clatter
I sprung into action to see what's the matter...

I was thinking the same, maybe rocking from D to R trying to get unstuck...maybe doing Neutral drops to try and peel out. Whatever happened, I think we may have found the root cause of why it was parked many moons ago.Ouch man that hurts!! Almost seems like the PO didn't quite have it in gear and just tried ramming it through something.
...and a total TOTAL PITA to pull apart. The idler shaft was frozen to the rear case and everything else was just stuck. I would get a 1/4" separation, try to pound the idler shaft in...just pushed the case back on...eventually it came apart with idler shaft and gears with the rear case. A hard fought battle today.OMG that is uuuugllyyyy. At least you can fix it however you want.
