Time to pull the 68 panel wagon out

[trapperjack]

I hope so too. Could use some in deciding what to do on it. It runs great, just needs a few things tidied up. Goats got under it and dinged up the powerglide pan a little, lost fluid, but it's been ok since I sealed it back up. i have a few things I'm thinking of swapping off on it, and would like to have another opinion. Not sure what I'm up to this weekend yet, but I'll call you tomorrow sometime if i remember and have service at the same time.

Getting ready to pull it out and start on it, and making a list of things i need to do. Needing a few questions answered.

I've searched and found nothing. It's the original 68 powerglide. How many quarts and what type fluid go in it? I'm going to drop the pan and re-gasket. I did it back in I think 06, but don't remember what I used. It was fine untill goats got under it goofing around, now I found a bright red puddle under it and dings on the pan. Which gasket sealer would you use?

Had non-power drum brakes, that stopped it on a dime, no complaints, untill it started leaking at the master. Everyone tells me to swap in a power booster. That won't bolt in will it? if not, it did fine as it was.

The reason I parked it in 07 was the brakes and the tail/brake lights. Oh and retreat lights. I get nothing. my great-uncle jury-rigged an 80's model wire harness in the column with wires crossed everywhere under the column. I used to could jiggle the wire mess and get them to work for days, then have to jiggle again. I wasn't able to find a correct harness for it, so....ideas?
Sorry for the long post. Thanks, if you read this far.
