He's gotten two that were in poor condition. Does anyone know where I can get a good one? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 1,362 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 1,362 |

Try calling Obsolete Chevrolet Parts Company for availability/price. That case is listed here for $250 ( CollectorsAutoSupply.com 1-888-772-7848 ) | | | | | Joined: Apr 2013 Posts: 74 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2013 Posts: 74 | Thanks, unfortunately they don't list a price or answer their phone | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | Do you have a casting number or something. I have 1 or2 partialy disassembled trans. from that era at the shop. I can look at them tomorrow.
