I just took it around town for the first real drive and it did great. Stalled a few times at a stop and the brakes need bled but it's in progress. Also the cops don't like the sound of open manifolds I found. If anyone "local" wants to see her I'm up to a drive sometime. Let me know. Thanks for all the support yuo guys have gave me, I could have never got it thins far with out you. Thanks everyone.
Hah, awesome, man. You have plates and insurance, too? Don't worry, I won't tell.
I still owe you a few things. I need to get over there sometime soon.

Well, due to a newfound discovery, I need a flywheel. Brian do you have one in your stash? Or anyone else??
Or perhaps a flexplate since it's an auto?
Congrats on the first drive....ain't it fun :hick:
Whatever it is, I need one. You can turn it over to a point, then the starter just spins. Turn the it alittle by hand then you can turn it over by key again to the same point. It still starts and now drives. I had it in D in 1st then all of a sudden she threw me into my seat and low and behold, I had ALL the gears, R, OD, D, everything. But now this problem...
Check the starter motor.
My '86 did the same exact thing on two occasions. Once it was the Bendix going bad in the motor, and the other time the bolts came loose and the starter was pulling away from the bellhousing.
I have a couple of those if you happen to need one, Mike.
I just put a new starter in it today, it started fine a few times and now it's doing the same thing. Thats why I think Flexplate.
Ok then. Maybe the teeth have been stripped off in a few spots?
That's just about the worst sound in the world...
It is. I have found 2 spots so far. I might be getting one from brian.
