well, I was feeling overwhelmed to find I need a different bell housing due to wrong bearing retainer size AND I found I need a new crossmember for the 4 speed.

I am a bit relieved now to find that I can modify and use my original cross member

I made a statement yesterday that I don't like to modify parts .....well....I guess I take that back in light of what I discovered with the cross member. Basically the auto and 4 speed cross members are the same EXCEPT the auto has a box section welded to the front of it and the center isn't cut out from the factory. SOOOO to make a 4 speed unit I need to cut of the extra welded on box section and cut out the center and BAM ...4 speed cross member.

I came to this conclusion by reading a thread on Dodge charger dot com and plus I notice that brewers sells a four speed unit but they specify that it was made from an original automatic one. They want a nasty core charge and it works out to close to 200 bucks and I see originals get anywhere from 2 to 2.5 bills.

so today I guess I will get the grinder out and the mini-sawzall and see if I can save myself 200 bucks.

Sounds good. The car isn't original anyway and if Brewers is doing it. I'd definitely go for it.
 
It was my goofy Aunt this morning waking me up to tell me she had a sheet cake for tonight
 
Not much, got the headliner and the interior in except for the d door panel of course. Might take the door off today to weld it.
 
Morning guys. Coffee's done and fixing some cinnamon rolls.
 
I got the Le baron done. It wasn't rubber in the motor mount it came unbolted. Broken bolts and stripped holes. What a mess it turned out to be

No problem not like it is needed to get it on the road. I have wiring stuff that also needs to be done, the guy you got it from was doing something with the column wiring that I have no idea what it was, everything appears to work but has extra factory wires hanging.
