hey terry
you can`t pull the trans out on the 30` on a lift.( they didn`t have lifts in 1930) i tried it. i had half the trans out on a lift and couldn`t get it out with the rear axle tube in the way. i had to get the car towed to my friends garage and put it on jack stands. jack up the rear by the frame to bring down the rear axle and remove the trans and clutch by removing the floor boards and seats and bring the trans out thur the pass side door.
believe it or not the trans is coming out again next winter when i pull the engine to get that rebuilt. i`m still looking for an engine rebuilder. i can`t do it. as it has poured lead bearing on the crank that have to be fitted and grinded down for each engine.
sorry i can`t take any pictures of the car right now cause it looks like a basket case. i got parts everywhere. some in my basement, some in my car, some in my friends garage. some out for blasting, repaint.
it will be good to get away from the car for a week of wind powered fun. but once i get it back to one piece and rolling down the road under its own power i`ll be smilling from ear to ear. i am getting calls to use the car for town parades and the few times i did drive the car before tearing into it i felt like king s#$t with the looks i get. the only broken part i found on the car was a broken brake spring. everything else is just worn or worn out.
