Bob, we have a guy down here in Groton, CT that I've used for several transmission jobs, both automatic and manual, including my 64 Muncie.

There's a shop right near my house that gets good reviews. I know he's an old car guy. If you choose to go here, let me know if I can help you out.

There's also at least 2 guys who advertise in the NCRS "Restorer" about whom I've heard good things.

Ed told me (I believe), that he won't be at Carlisle this year, he had a scheduling conflict. If anyone wants his contact info let me know.
