Finally,,
Its in,,,,and it moves... After owning my chevelle since 1989, and always wanting a manual trans, Its in.. an M22 complete.. Alamost every time I saved enough bucks to start,a family of 5 with myself,,,,, something would come up and then my trans is on hold. Yesterday I went out to my friend shop just to see if he was going to need anything else,,,,And,,,,,,, ITS IN>>> Im over 50 years old and unless you are like us,,,,,,,, Well I was excited as a kid.. What a feeling.. to sit there in my old car, just like before I could even drive,, shifting gears and just looking.. Sorry to rant.. Needless to say,as soon as I got home.I called my oldest son,whose 22,and into turboss and nissan,well the younger two are into domestics, and he was so happy to hear my excitement.. bla bla bla.. whew. im sorry that I ranted here,but needed to relive it again.. thanks,

I really want one of you sitting there, still, shifting gears. I hear you loud and clear on other things taking your car money. Been there done that, got the freaking t-shirt. Congratulations, now get out there and drive....and be careful......lolBill

Congrats, I know just how you feel. Like Bill said, we've been there and I'm still doing it
. If I ever get my Nova up and running I'll probably do the same thing.... phone my oldest boy and let him hear it over the phone.
KenIf there is a hard way to do something, I'll find it!
My other car is a Vega.
