I too thought you were talking about your 'stang. I had a lump in my throat until the last sentence.
Can you find a used tranny from a junkyard to drop in or is it still more than Cutlass is worth? What year is cutlass? I used to have a 80 Cutlass Calais with a 260 v8. Nice ride, no power!

hard to see, but the pin sheared at the back of the spider gear, it actualy rotates the gear around to the opening and i could easly pull it apart...tranny slips a little now when its warm, i think its time to put her out to pasture
