Transmissions…

The AW70 in this car is toast.  It was puking ATF, replaced the bushing and extension housing seal, no change.  Also it was just laggy to drive and didn’t feel right even with fresh fluid.  I pulled it out this weekend and picked up a low mileage, leak free AW71 locally from another enthusiast.  However, while driving the ‘75 around I realized what I really wanted was an M46, as it is just so much more fun to drive with the 4 speed.  So I’ve decided to pull the M46 from the ‘75 and put it in the ‘83.  I’ll put the AW71 in the ‘75 to make it easier for my dad to drive.  More updates when complete!
