Anybody got a digital camera that can take a picture of the xmission
linkage on a 75?  I need a picture of the neutral/park (N/P) safety switch
and the associated linkage.  The N/P switch is located on the back of the
bell housing on the drivers side.

I managed to put in about 6 hrs today, trying to find bushings etc. to put
the linkage back together.  What do I have to show for todays work?  The
N/P switch is mounted on it's mounting plate, and the intermediate shaft
is connected to it, 2 sets of nuts and bolts and 1 clip.  Man what a wast
of a day.  I'm still trying to find the box with all the parts in it.

When I take something apart, I put all the pieces for that item in baggies,
with a slip of paper telling me what it is, and where it goes.  Then these
baggies get put in boxes, shoe and oil boxes make great storage containers.

I also have a habbit of taking things too far apart.  OH well, now all I need
is a couple of more bushing/grommetts; weld up a new threaded end on the long
xmission linkage arm, of course mine was so rusted that it broke when I tried
to remove the nut. Find the light assembly and spring for the floor shifter
mechanism and I might get it together.

Probably the only thing that went 1/2 way right, was I put the accelerator
cable on the firewall.  Boy was that tough - just push the square end into
the square hole - about 5 seconds.
