[1955 Buick Century FOR SALE]

Mechanicly sound, needs attention to the body. Sounds like the rust is the main issue. Is it mainly surface, or is there body rot, has any body work already been done?

[HELP aka I need a Trany for a 55 special]

Hey everyone,

I own a 55 Special. It has the original fireball 264 v8, and the original synchromesh three speed manual transmision (which is shot). I've been looking for a new trany for almost a year now and have had no luck. It seems that the only tranys out there are the dynaflow automatics. Does anyone know where I could find a synchromesh trany for sale, or know of a rebuild kit I can use. I talked to a shop in my area (I'm in the tide water region of VA) and he said I would have to forget about a buick transmision. I don't want my car mix and matched, I want to keep it all Buick. If anyone has any information or knows of anyone with a tranny to sell please HELP.

thanks a lot,

BigBlue
