Hey everyone... i'm new here.
I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on my dream car... a 67 mustang. Its an automatic with a 302. Everything about the car seems solid, however the transmission is described as being "ok but could be redone in the future." I guess it leaks a little and when it shifts at full acceleration 2-3rd wants to slip or not catch but it down shifts great.
If I do get it, it would likely be my daily driver. I dont have a ton of car knowledge, at least not YET. So what i'm wondering is :
Should this deter me at all?
If I had to replace the transmission, how much would parts and labor cost. Also... could I do it myself? I don't have a lot of knowledge, but I am pretty capable of following directions.
Thanks
