I need a T-5 transmission for my 85 Mustang GT as I destroyed mine at E20 last Friday. Not sure what happened but when I shifted to 3rd I heard a loud boom and then lots of grinding noises from inside the car. I pushed in the clutch and coasted down and around the track to the grass area. Was able to drive car onto a trailer but there is a lot of noise going on inside the transmission.
I am guessing its gonna be cheaper to buy a used one as opposed to having it rebuilt. At this point I just wanna get the car back on the road and to the track without spending a grand. I have plans to pull the entire drivetrain this fall to have the body / paint done. Will probably drop some money on an engine / trans combo at the same time. Right now I am just looking to get back to E20 on Friday nights for some seat time.
Let me know if someone has one for sale for a decent price. Any suggestions as to what to look for / stay away from also appreciated.
