I used to dream of a girl that could work on cars . sigh, but only as a kind of joke, I often had antique or old sports cars. I gave up on that one, and the tandem bike plan. Glad yours worked out, and glad you have a rewarding car to work. I used to work on a girls torn up VW bug and got little satisfaction with a job well done , because of the context.
I now need the inner rubber boot for the shifter and the stock leather boot. You know if any of the gang have such things laying around?!
Post a message in the club forum in the Southwest section and ask. I have spare parts out in the shed, but nothing for a shifter. There's no telling what the rest of the group might have sitting in the garage.
got this from my spouse who received it from her girlfriend after (allegedly) being told she needed to "add a quart of oil" to her car . . . .
"See? It's not so hard !"
Reminds me the time I added oil to my Toyota and forgot to put back the oil cap. Drove about 20 mn before starting to see smoke coming from under the hood. It was not a pretty sight when I opened the hood.
Funny thing, the oil cap got wedged somewhere and didn't fall off.
