Here it goes folks.

My tranny is apparently leaking very mildly out of every seal possible. It shifts great, pulls great and otherwise kicks butt. However, she sat for a long time and the lack of use took it's toll rotting the seals.

What's involved with resealing the tranny?

How many seals/gaskets are involved.

Should I do it myself or make HAMB legend Blane do it? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks folks!

not really much to it. only one seal requires a special tool. For the parts you might try a local tranny shop. here is a list of the parts you'll need ( front and rear seal,front pump gasket and o-ring, pan gasket and filter,shifter seal. if the trany is out of the car a shop will charge you about 50 to 75 bucks. if you do it your self, parts will cost about 25 bucks

Sounds like a good time to install a 3rd pedal. You can invite me over. I have a lot of experience installing standard trannies. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

So do stock Ford Model Ts and they have what can be described as a semi-automatic trans. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

...what does it mean when something or somebody is 'gay' ????

Here in the UK being 'gay' basicaly means you are a fag.

But then, a 'fag' is what we call a cigarette http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
As in: A 'pack of fags', 'I need a fag', 'can I have a fag'.

Two great countries, divided by a common language. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Thanks for the info guys. I'll plan on pickin up the parts this weekend.

Real hot rods may have 3 pedals. However, real broke hot rodders use free transmissions. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Glad to hear gay is gay, wherever you go!

I all you want is a temporary fix pour a capfull of brake fluid in there. It will swell the seals for a time and stop the seaping. Works on steering gears also.
