We got Reggie's car to the tranny shop at 8:30 this morning, picked it up at 3PM all done. The trans cooler rubber line had split and pumped the fluid out and burned it up. They had a 350 built on the shelf, swapped pans (his was shiney chrome) swapped it out, also found rear u joint was burned up, dry and stuck so replaced that also. The bill came to $695.00, paid him off and Reggie is good to go. What a great trans shop, clean, big 7 lifts, he is a street rodder too.
He will leave in the morning early to beat some heat, really hot here, 99 degrees with heat index of 105.
Elvis flies in tomorrow at noon at Indy, we will head north to get out of some heat. Dearborn is only 300 miles away. We will stay some where south of Dearborn, the deal does not start until Thursday.
