68 Cutlass Transmission
Hello all,
Looking at purchasing a 68 Cutlass S in my area. Did a pre buy inspection, lots of tranny fluid on the bottom of car, definitely leaking but could not tell from where. Also, it was slipping on the test drive. Could be a seal but was wondering what the ballpark cost would be to have it (the tranny) replaced, if it came to that.
Thanks

It cost me $1100 to get my THM 400 rebuilt 5 years ago. There was some extra work that had to be done when it was rebuilt that brought up the price to the $1100 mark but it works great. I would rebuild what you have (if it is rebuildable) before replacing it - just a personal opinion. Like the sign just inside the front door to my house says, "The opinions expressed by the husband of this house are not necessarily those of the management".
