I honestly was not prepared for the impact it would have on the feel of the Car..

Each Step of this Car's restoration is like a Leap..

Finally discovered what was causing the horrible gear change and jumping out of 2nd and 4 th gear. The rubber boot had got torn and jammed between the shift rod and the bulkhead. Once removed the gearbox has been transformed. Its like a new gearbox! Wish I'd done this years ago.Image

Finito.. 8)

You just need to tidy up the old Cables & Connectors with Zip Ties..

Be sure to clip the one that holds it down close to the where the Heater Blower Connection was, then clip back up further back in the Engine Bay.. :wink:
