Thank you for the warm welcome. In response to your question Citcapp, yes I do have an Olds. It is a 1967 Olsmobile Cutlass Town Sedan V-8 and I bought her back in Late September. I have recently completed some routine maintenance and ( Brake Lines, New Master Cylinder) and dicsovered that she will not go into drive. I am looking for a TH 350 to rebuild but they seem very difficult to come by. i am currently in the process of taking out my jaw and want to upgrade for cruisin purposes only. Any thoughts? Another question can i use steel braided trann lines? My existing one are rusted and very difficult to get off.

What she said
Not sure if 1A tony owns any olds or not but he is a NASCAR fan. Interesting user name , you should be able to find a th350 trans around somewhere. There were lots of them made by GM.

There are three Pull a Part junk yards in Ohio you should be able to find a trans. In one are all of them. Most junk yards aren't going to have any thing older than 1990 in them. Pull a Part you can check the inventory online. Plus you need look for little junk yards that have older cars. There are a lot of BOP 350turbo out there just look you'll find one.

Crying Over Spilled Milk!
Hello Fellow Rocketeers,
I wanted to explain why my previous comments were posted in all CAPS!!! My youngest son (E.J., 18 Months) thinks that it is ok to put his sippy cup on Daddy's Laptop. One accident here, or another tantrum there and BANG, I am literally crying over spilled Milk. Hopefully, the forum Elders grant me a one time pass lol.(Thanks Guys for the heads up!) My caps key is now working after some tlc from DOS-BOOT computer repair on the campus of OSU. I now have a functional keyboard again thus the new and improved post. Hey Jamesbo, The reason I say I was raised that way was because of the many times my parents Raised me off of the floor for back talk, and any other form of disrespect (lol). With this in mind, I wonder if I am the only one here in Olds Country or this Forum who was raised as a child?

Absolutely a must see build. Click on Richards sig line that's highlighted in blue and check it out. Richard put a lot of really nice work into that beauty and it's worth seeing what he did to it. maybe give you some ideas.
