Re: Restoring Rusty
Runaway, runaway! Do some research into parts and machining prices. I found some great deals on 3-speed Saginaw parts and cases online back when I was thinking about keeping mine. I'm sure you can find sources for 833 parts.
Hey, for a few $hundred more, you might be able to find a used Gear Vendors OD to hang on the back of your 4-speed.
