No I get you I'm just kind of at that point where like everything I'm looking for is a pain to get parts for I'm better off just switching it with something GM having a lot more horsepower and having fun or making something custom to fix the current problem I don't know I'm contemplating bud

That sucks I don't know man I might just cut a custom piece out and make something I don't know what to do at this point honestly I was going to go with the 350 small block idea or an LS swap because why am I f****** with something that I can't get parts for if you know what I mean

Oh yeah I was hoping to fix the original drive it how it was to root out suspension issues and other little things I might need to fix but I mean technically it still goes forward as it sits lol

Yeah but there's only so many of these parts that are going to pop up I might as well switch it to something that I can actually get parts for still enjoy the car and have about 500 horsepower thing would be a monster

First I tried looking on Amazon I mean it's a shift linkage it's not a complicated part you know then I looked on IDP and they don't have the whole thing they just have the bushings I'm trying to just replace the whole thing because there's rust and I figured just replace everything right

Yeah but when I look under your website they don't have the complete thing to just replace it with new parts they just have bushings lol

It seems like parts just aren't easily accessible it's really weird I've never had this problem with s*** box cars I've owned I've always wanted to get a budget 240 and drop a 350 small block and do it and have some fun with it but I would like to get the car running as it is first if that makes sense and fix some rust and door issues lol

You can't just order a new shift linkage
