The craft shop does not allow any painting on the premises so I can't really pull mine off and clean it up the way I would want to. I thought if I could find a a new OEM type one, I could go ahead and paint it and make the swap.

I replaced the transmission pan gasket a while back and it seems to still leak just a little. I think it ids because the pan was so wacked. I'm considering a chrome pan for that. But, that's really not my priority right now. It's just damp, not dripping like the oil pan.

Thanks again.
got mine at summit for 40 buxs chrome
