    Box Town Car transmission.

    I've got a long tailed tranny from a 85 Continental that had 100k on it.

    I never got around to installing it, so I never drove it, but the previous owner said it worked fine, he pulled it for a 5 speed swap. The fluid was a bit dirty but not burnt or watery, not much grey matter in the pan. I saw the car it came out of, it was very clean. I was told here the shift linkage will need swapped for use in a Townie.

    I've already drained it and the torque converter, pulled the tail, installed new tail gasket and bushing, new front and rear seals. I bought other seals etc too, don't ask I don't remember exactly what I'll include everything I can find. Might be missing a pan bolt etc or two as it's been sitting for a while.

    Sitting in the greater Cleveland Ohio area near St Rt 8 / I-271 / I-80. Drop me a line, make me an offer.

          Seeking threesome:

          Single tranny looking for a 3 way hookup. Willing to go face-to-back with a strong driver, and adventurous enough to take it in the other end at the same time.

          Clean and drug free. You have to host. PM for details.
