Well I'll start from the top since what happen kinda of has a toppling affect. Well first off my 98 GT has an auto tranny in and well I killed it. It goes in reverse but not forwards, so I have it up on ramps right now cause I took the tranny and ordered another one. I found a good used one and I get to go pick it up tomorow. Well my parents were generous enough to go ahead and pay for this tranny so I can go ahead and get the GT back on the road. Unfortunately I have to pay them back and I don't make enough during the school year to pay my car payment and pay my parents, so alas the T-5 I purchased for my 67' is now on ebay. There really is no way for me to finish the T-5 setup now. This in a way is good and bad, one now all I need to do is buy a new clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing (which isn't too expensive :D ) and I will be able to put the 3.03 back in real soon. So I will have my engine and tranny back in the 67' about 2-3 months sooner than I anticipated. Which is fine by me, it's just I'll be eating PBJ's instead of pizza or whoppers for awhile :? . Well I guess everything happens for a reason and I figure once I finish college 2-3 yrs from now I'll be able to upgrade the 67' to a T-5 then. I really need to get some pics of the 200 up soon. If anyone is looking for a T-5 mine is on ebay!!
 
im in the same boat. Been savin for my T5 and eatin LESS than PB&J's, try Ramen noodles and anything I can steal from home, lol. Anywyas, car getsa a funny click to it and I cant figure it out. $160 later Im back on the road with new carb, and exhaust gaskets and the car starts first shot, lol. Put me back REAL bad on my Tranny build tho and my suto is gonna die any day now. Ohhhh well, I have a job it just doesnt pay well, lol.
