NOS, $20 plus $8 shipping via Priority Mail just arrived! Still had the old Atlas Mfg. Company tag on it, and definately looks new and never installed.
I've got a starter to replace on the wifes '95 Fjord Exploder, then i'm puttin' the wrench on the '46 tranny and at the very least, getting the old flywheel off.
You know, I just feel like saying that every time I have to work on a newer vehicle i'm just awestruck at what a PITA it is.. not just the Fjords, but the Chevys, too.
My '46 starter removal was as simple as sitting on the fender, pulling two bolts and a cotter pin out and VOILA! she's out.. I didn't even get dirty.
Of course, pulling the trans out might prove to be a little more challenging.. i'll report back later!
