    260 trans in Detroit / SE Michigan area

    Looking for a known good condition M/T trans and hood for the ChumpCar.


    Trans needs to be in good working order, no noises, crunchy feeling, etc. Linkage not necessary. '87+ for the year, prefer 'is' so I don't have to plug the holes. output flange doens't matter.

    Hood - found one at the local pick-n-pull


    Much prefer in the Detroit-ish area so I can pick it up, but may be wiling to buy one shipped if its a good deal.

    Figured I'd ask the community before heading down to the junk yard to see what I can find.


    TIA

        Still looking locally for hood and trans. Much prefer local to save on shipping hassle/cost.

        Also now looking for a single-mass flywheel in good shape. Bonus if it has been lightened and re-balanced.


        I live in Detroit and am willing to drive some distance to pick up the parts. Will be in Grand Rapids area this weekend if anyone out there has what I'm looking for.

                Found a hood at the local pick-n-pull yard, looks like I might have a line on a flywheel.



                I still need a good trans. Anything in the area?
