Getting Morticia ready for Asheville!

[LMS]

Transmission is one thing I worry about on this trip. I am still running the original, never been rebuilt 1969 unit.
It has given me no troubles so far but who knows.

Who will you go with for the transmission rebuild?

I'm going to let Billy take a shot at it. Price is reasonable and he's willing to warranty it (the good ole - 'you will bring your ass to wherever I'm broken down at and fix this mofugger!' clause).

I have work to do as well. My brake light keeps coming on and I have been to lazy to find out why.

Decided that I didn't want to wait until the weekend before to start doing work on Morticia to get her ready.

Went to Summit this weekend, bought a few things.

B&M transkit
Hughes trans pump

External electric fuel pump (105 gph) http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-g3136-2
Wiring harness with relay
Regulator
Gauge
6' of braided hose and fittings.

Upon getting home though and doing some research, I see that the best place to put an electric pump is towards the tank, so I guess I'll need to get more fuel line before running it. Probably also going to drop the tank and fix the f'n fuel sending unit.
