Well I just gave my key to the guys at the tranny shop. Unfortunately I am off work tomorrow so it will be hard for me to take any pictures. I'm thinking maybe I could have Ron snap some pics of the progress for me. :D

I think we are going to go with a one piece drive shaft as well

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
 

Sweet ShawnO!!

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
 

Man I need to have one rebuilt and put in. I know I'll have to shorten my one piece drive shaft and figure out how ill mount my 700. But doing the other stuff to make it function is what boggles me like the linkages and how it affects gear selection at the column

Thanks Rus, I'm getting really excited to drive this thing.

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
 

They are using my factory th350 linkage that I got off the forum here so your linkage should not be an issue.
