omg this is gonna be fun im redoing a completely stripped 12a automatic and turning it into glsse 13b 5speed... i got a motor and i have already swapped harnness and dash getting ready to put black leather 2nd gen seats in then im moving to the motor. the suspension has all been redone and the brakes are almost finished...... i post pics soon hopefully i got a camera now... and for those guys that are watching the parts when i get most of this project done ill have pics and i better idea of what can be sold..... thanks ill keep you guys posted

 

Have fun trying to get those pedals out. I've been there and done that. It can be done, but make sure your patience is up to the task. Also, remember that if you have an overdrive automatic you're going to need a longer driveshaft and some 1/4" steel brackets for the crossmember when you put everything back together....

The pedals are not TOO bad but they did suck when I did this swap,you DO NOT need to take the dash out but DO leave the drivers seat out so that you have some room to move,Good Luck man,it's worth it!

 

i allready past that step

 

You're an allstar in my book then.

 

Congrats! You just earned your Automatic to 5 Speed conversion badge Rotary Scout!

Seriously, way to go. I've been there and done that, and I know how frustrating it is. It's not a job for the faint of heart. If you can complete that swap, I'm convinced that you can tackle just about anything....

does any one happen to have a air gun? my was stolen and it sucks to do everything by hand.
