Last spring I bought a basket full of transmission parts. At Celina I bought a
complete transmission but it was ruined from being store full of water.
Well, last weekend I installed the final mixture of the two.
This tranny was rebuilt using all off the shelf bearings and seals except for
one bearing I replaced with a brass bushing. I did not replace the needle
bearings that the gears ride on or the the needle bearings in the water tranny.
The only common wear parts that I had to order were synchos and the double lip
seal. I even made my own gaskets using the old ones as templates. The total cost
of the whole project including the purchase of the original transmissions, right
at $1,000.
Now the world has one more amphicar transmission available.
If anyone has any partial or bad transmissions that they would like to part
with, please let me know.

P.S. I video taped the whole process so hopefully there will be a how to tape
and CD soon.
