My
local trans place (in business for 50 years) wants $150 to rebuild my TF,
provided I purchase the rebuild kit from somewhere (Northwest or Fastco) Add
another $100 to remove and replace it from the car.
$2000
seems WAY overpriced.

The trans on my '57 Fury went sprung a
leak two weeks ago on the way the NCPC
show in Scranton, PA. I got
it back to my resto shop, where they removed the
trans and sent it out to
there transmission guy along with a trans kit that
cost $340. The
guy came back with an estimate of $1500. I was kind of
shocked that
the trans would cost over $2000 with the labor of pulling it and
putting
it back into the car. Has anyone had the experience of replacing a
trans? If so, what has been the cost, on the average? I have a
feeling that
I'm getting hosed (and it's not a trans hose they're using).
Please let me
know what you guys think. They gave me a parts
list that they are replacing.
It still seems that it's overpriced.
Thanks in advance.
