Re: 64 Tranny Upgrade

I see you are in Socal...
If you don't want to deal with the drive shaft you could take it down to Oceanside Driveline (760) 439-9719. They did the exact change (powerglide to 350) on my '62 for the previous owner.
They picked up the fully reconditioned chevy t-350 6" auto trans @ at Gallat's Truck Salvage 760-433-4112 for about 400 bucks back in '03. I belive they also go a crossmember there, but I'm not sure.
I have been using my truck for commuting for over 1 year and a weekend ride before that. I just got a leak a week ago and am fixing it now. (speedo connection, previous user install error). The previos owner did the install so it probably hooks up pretty easily, he wasn't a NASA engineer...

Hope this helps...
