transmission

The transmission should have come out with the engine.
What i did not like was I had to disassemble the front console and remove the shift handle.
Also the tach cable broke so that has to be replaced.
Once it was separated it came out easy. Its not heavy and I put it into the shop by hand.
When it came out it rolled on the floor and a fair amount
of water came out of the upper shift housing. It must have been there for some time and it may have gotten there the first year I had the car and just covered it up for the winter.

The transmission has a newer throughout bearing as well as a new arm
 This drive train has definitely been overhauled. The bell housing was full of oil to show that the rear seal has been leaking for a while.
It needs a good cleanup and washdown.
