Re: '69 GMC Build Thread.

Haha, thanks Bill.

today was essentially my last day of school for the year, so it's not like it's a real inconvienence in not having 'er on the road at the moment. Woulda liked to drive her to graduation on saturday, but, thats ok as well. haha. we'll see what happens.

all in all, I still can't complain about the ol' girl. 39 years old, and this is about the worst that's happened. and in all honesty, I prolly had something to do with it. And yet, she has still never not made it home for me. Dad hit the tree, I drove it home. shifter broke, I drove it home. burnt up the clutch, but drove it home, lol. Tranny starts to go out, drove it home. Maybe if i hadn't taken that girl for a ride like she asked, the tranny woulda had a little more life in it..hmm...-shrug-. oh well. it was totally worth it. haha

alright guys, I'll post back when I get some more info on whats going on inside the 3 speed.

thanks for the encouragement as always!

-Sam.
