Thanks Chip.
We went to the dealer to get a 4 speed car, which was standard equipment in the RR package, and Mom had agreed to it. But Dad said the dealer wouldn't "dicker" on the price on the 4 speed car, and thus he bought the automatic. We didn't even see the car until the deal was done. It was in the basement of the dealership.
I wonder if it would have survived, had it been a 4 speed!? LOL
I drove it off the lot, and made it about a block, then coasted into a gas station out of gas. Dad was not happy! LOL
I will update as I get started on it.
