Title: Finally making progress
Post by: jmblake on March 27, 2011, 10:47:52 AM

Well I'm finally making some progress on my trany swap, It seamed like it was just one problem after another. We got the jakes on and the trany connected to the engine and got everything cleaned up and just finished painting the engine and the engine compartment. Now as soon as I get the new shift cable from MCI we can put it back in the bus, hopfully in a couple weeks it will be ready for a test run. I just hope that every thing works, It turned into a lot more than I was wanting but it will be worth it. I'm just glad I have a good friend that is a retired DD mechanic that has helped out so much, He really in joyed working on the old girl. The engine color was Sherwin Williams DD alpine green but I think it is to dark but once its in the hole no one will notice. Jason

Thanks for the complements guys, I don't know how long it will stay looking like this. But I can't wait to get it on the road again. Jason
