I don't want to make any extra work for anybody, but...
I just bought a 67 3-speed from Vanishingbreed. Since it is a direct swap for what I already have, I did not need the bellhousing, so he took that off and boxed up the rest. The double box with foam packing and transmission weighed just over 80 lbs and cost me just over $40 to ship 1100 miles (S.CA to N.OR) using FedEx Ground. Mike had to try a few FedEx locations and I had to receive it at my business location, but once that was figured, it was surprisingly cheap and easy (Mike might disagree on the easy part
...(thanks again, Mike!)).Ted
