Finally I picked her up from the tranny shop this morning. Finally, she moved more than several feet on her own power since her 5th and 6th gears took a dump on a Florida highway during our PCB festivities. Finally, I could feel comfortable with posting up in here as much as I did in the past.
After a T-56 stage 2 rebuild, a new throw-out bearing, a new CF clutch (thanks to JMB Justin) and a new 'stock' flywheel (the Fidanza was a wreck), and some legal action against a certain warranty company that tried to ditch out on covering the $6,000.00 bill, I was leary driving her today.... Probably because I know there is a new clutch present and I have to take it easier than I normally do on her for the next 800 miles. I still have to put her front bumper on, clear off the 6 months of accumulated dust and cobwebs and change all of her fluids. I don't want to do anymore mods other than finally having some 4.56 gears installed that I've been holding on to. I already know for sure that I will never race her. I have a set of DR's with 17" wheels that I never used that I will soon toss up for sale. I will post up some pictures of her when I get her washed and polished up like she so desperately needs.
I would also like to extend another sincere thanks to all of those that helped out during my time in need.
