Many years ago, I worked in a little two bay shop. We had some of those old Chilton books, and my memory may be failing me, but I seem to remember seeing one of those old Dinosaurs in one of those books. A big old dark green book with lots of greasy finger prints.

This link will take you to a complete overhaul manual and also description of the operation of the transmission.

Jack, I stand corrected! I should have done my homework on the Kingswood/Brookwood name plate rather than relying on an increasingly shaky memory. By the way, I've owned a bunch of early Vettes, some with PG transmissions and I'm pretty sure that the TG trans was never offered in that platform. Therefore, we'll still be able to count the cars on one finger. Now, let's decide which finger it will be.....

PA, I wasn't leaning on you. We go back waaay to far for that, right?

Bill D., I sent you a PM last night. Did it get through?

Chuck,
Please email me at Billdedman@hotmail.com.

I don't know how to access PM's in this forum, sadly... (So old to be so ignorant...)

Sorry for the inconvenience...
Bill

Show up and tell them that you just bought the car and the seller said it was legal, LOL.

Jack,

Start calling the tech guys!!!!!!!!

I've got a couple of spare 200's. You want me to bring one to BG? Hell, I think I have a converter that might work. How much does the wagon have to weigh?
