Subject:      Re: Transmission Be Gone?

Mechanic just called back. - No new transmissions available anywhere!
Options are to get a used trans w/ 90 day warranty or a rebuild w/ all
new bearings w/ 12 month 12K miles warranty.  The prices are $700
and $1K respectively.  I think I'll spend the extra $300.

 
-Scott.
