Here is what the trans looks like now. I used Eastwood's "alumablast" paint and then I sprayed clear over it. We'll see how it holds up.

I had it re-built at Georand Brothers Transmision in St Lucas, Iowa. They were featured in Mopar Muscle a few years ago for there bullit proof torque convertors for Cummins diecels.

The owner gave me a one year warrenty on the trans. I told him that it would be years before the car was on the road again but he didn't care. He said that he would warrenty it anyway because he was more concerned with the miles driven than the accual time.
