While the underside was stripped I fully reundercoated the car (it was already fully undercoated from the factory). I had the matching # trans rebuilt by Darrins Automotive in Big Lake MN who I would say is the best place in MN to get a 727 rebuilt. The transmission looked like a piece of jewelery as he fully detailed the case and hardware. I also sent the driveshaft, yoke, trans trans mount, front suspension fully done in powder coat.
