Hopefully it will be something minor. Is the car a 2bbl or 4bbl car? I like the color combo! I have only seen 1 other 70 cutlass in silver.

It has a 4bbl, it runs like a beast but right now i have the following issues:

All started the same day.

1. Shift indicator on speedometer stopped working
2. Takes 4 or 5 tries to get car out of park before it catches any gear
3. Noticed small droplets of tranny fuild leaking.

Welcome to CO. There will be someone here to help with the tranny issues. It may be the linkages are messed up, and there is a small leak. Really nice car otherwise. I like the color. More pics, and keep us posted on the status on the tranny issues.

Welcome to CO. You might re-post your troubles on the transmission sub-forum, not all of our members watch this sub-forum. Good luck in finding the solution.
