Streets are flooded and we are the lucky ones. Up in PeteK's neck of the woods people are having it rough. I got to meet Pete on Monday when we dropped my dad's transmission off for rebuild. It was great to meet him. Man knows his transmissions, he had it torn apart before we got back to dad's house. It was pretty much toast due to a crappy rebuild sometime in the past. we picked up the new torque converter today. Pete hopes to have the parts in this weekend. But my wife and I are heading back to NC on Sunday so I won't be here to help him put it back in. Dad and I tinkered in the garage some today. His mufflers are shot but he's going to have to run them for now since the trans rebuild has turned out to be a bit more than anticipated. So we welded up some holes and tacked on of the muffs back in place. I did get to put my eyes and hands on his OBX headers, they sure are purty!! |
