Re: 1984 Rebuild

New update. Boy things happen a lot faster when you are paying someone to fix it. Took the master cylinder by today, mechanic said it will be parked at my house before Christmas, that will make the wife happy, except then I have to start on it again:)

Re: 1984 Rebuild

Went by the shop, transmission is going back it the car. Found out what caused it to be stuck in reverse. The plastic gears on the speedo cable had broken and fallen in there, simple fix, new speedo cable. They hope to have it running this week!

Re: 1984 Rebuild

Can't believe it has been so long since I have posted, and even longer since I have worked on the Rabbit. We have moved a couple of times and numerous other issues but it looks like I will be starting back on the Rabbit soon! And yes it is still stuck in reverse:(
