what to do with old tranny?

Post by rainypotato »

My island mentality coupled with import part woes caution me in dumping the old transmission.

I do have to remove it from my frontt lawn now, but what use could it be to anyone...torque converter too?

I dont know about over there, but over here the actual parts in the tranny are usually available, so it could potentially be rebuilt. Until its needed could yo use it as a giant paperweight in some modern art piece?

I was thinking of a planter in the garden.

We have a few working the street corners near where I work, I'll ask one.
Nothing says "poor workmanship" more than wrinkles in the duct tape.
