you will get more for it as scrap

bajachris88 - May 16th, 2008 at 08:54 PM

but if it was scrap then it wouldn't be a great working gearbox like this one would it?

If you get stuck for transport, I'm actually driving down to Sydney next weekend in the ute (well Turramurra at least).

HerbieBoy82 - May 17th, 2008 at 09:14 AM

So what price are you actually after for it mate?

68AutoBug - May 17th, 2008 at 11:59 AM

Are You selling everything Chris?

Torque converter
Flexplate
Gearshifter
Control valve

what about the ATF / Dual Pump? off the engine
and the Vacuum Tank?
and the ATF Tank?

I see the clutch servo still on the gearbox..

PS:
the Low gear is very LOW
it was designed to go up very steep driveways etc..
and it will spin the rear wheels very easily in gravel etc..

I use it to beat cars at the traffic lights... lol

I'm happy with $100 buddy. The buy it now price on ebay was $185, but i just want it gone.

Thanks for the offer dave. Its appreciated, will keep it in mind.

The engine is gone now, But i still got the following semi auto stuff left:

- Vaccuum Canister

You should have taken the Dual ATF/engine pump off the engine as it will probably be thrown away...

cheers

Geez, I don't know how slow cars are where you live but my old low miler '68 1500 semi auto was an absolute slug. L was as high as 2nd gear in my '68 1500 manual, you could get it to at least 33mph. You must have got lucky with yours!

Aside from that they aren't a bad gearbox.

L from the specs is second gear.

However, cause it has a torque convertor, it really does what its name suggests. it converts some torque and throws it at the wheels, so suprisingly, L gear turns very easy due to this torque!!

1st gear in the manual box was therefore reduntant to be placed in the semi auto box because L was competent enough to get the job done.
