Tony McDonald is swapping the transmission in his 1935 Dodge pickup in the hotel parking lot at Rochelle Illinois, trying to stay in drag week. The jack slipped off the crossmember in bent his damper pulley. It is a 1969 340. Is there anyone that can help him out?

Tony is leading the hot rod class with his Mopar. He is trying really hard to stay in!

I just got an update from Tony. The transmission is in! With a hammer, chisel, punch and a file, he thinks .the pully is fixed good enuff. I'll be watching the live feed tomorrow to see how it runs!
