Well I have completed the tranny rebuild and have it back in. I sure miss driving it around. The hardest part was bolting the shifter back in. My exhaust is all welded together so I can't get it out of the way. It looks like all I have to do is give her a bath and wax job and I will be ready for the show.
I thought I might have to pull the trans back out because becase when I pushed in the clutch the trans would not stop spinning. I shut the engine down and put it in gear, pushed the clutch in and bumped the starter. It did not drag so I fired up the motor with the clutch in. The engine was idling and then the engine rpm started to get pulled down until it stalled out ( my foot was planted on the brake). I was not a happy camper. Released the clutch and pushed it back in. Thought I would try it again. This time it worked just fine and backed her out of the garage and went for a short drive.
All seems great now. The only thing that worried me on the trans rebuild was all the little needle bearings. I use my deep sockets as the install tool and it worked great.
See you all next weekend! What time are we meeting up on Saturday?

If you don't know, the XXX root beer shop in Issaquah, Washington, is the last surviving Triple-X in America. It is a monument to the 1950s and cool car culture, and will host 20 jam-packed car shows this summer, plus regular informal cruise-ins all the time. Take I-90 east to exit 17 for "Issaquah Front St.," go south about a block or two into Issaquah, left at signal onto Gilman Blvd, and XXX is on left.
4 hrs 2 mins round trip to the Triple X show,or 4 hrs 34 min. round trip to the Skykomish Show
