So I pulled the front clip today appears to be no frame damage I loosened the fenders because they're both in bad shape and the hood needs to come off the problem is it's about to snow any day now here in Anchorage, AK I have a garage but it's kind of small and I have my 70' olds 350 in there on a pallet and it needs to go on a engine stand so I can have some room to pull the car inside, I'm thinking about just pulling the 307 in the next month or so and getting the 350 ready to go in around spring of next year.
So my question is about the transmission linkage is I'm not sure where to start with it basically I've had to shift it into gear by grabbing the column and now it's really stiff I can barely get it into gear or park the shifter is on the floor for some reason the previous owner threw away the center console and the shifter is broken it looks like it was welded at some point when I got the car there was duck tape around it holding it together so the tape then broke I'll have to take a picture so you guys can see how shitty it looks, Not sure what aftermarket floor shifter I should get any suggestions my trans is a th350 by the way, I looked under the car at the linkage nothing looked broken more than likely bent I'm assuming I really need to jack it up put it on stands in the garage and replace the whole front suspension probably get drop spindles, upper and lower a arms the hole nine this winter including the rear suspension. I'll keep you guys updated on my progress.
not sure why the pictures I upload are sideways
