Re: Wife's 48

Thanks Matt, that's what I thought.

Mongo, when I picked it up it had been setting outside for some time. That appears to be surface and would come off with a little WD40 and a brush, it's that thin. This is the tranny that was behind the 283 that had some rust in #1 cylinder because they had put a plastic shopping bag over the carb and it had ripped to shreds in the wind and had water get in. I got both with the 54 that I'm rebuilding next, so they were sort of free. I can try them, work on them or use them for cores. The good news bad news is that I have time before I need them. Lot's to learn and do.
