well, steering racks in, rear upper shock rubbers in, all rear bushes are fine, dad reckosn they were replaced at one stage, godbless the oldies that had the car before me, seems they got a lot of things replaced and such.

the auto has a leak still tho, only small, but maybe annoying enuf to stuff me around with roady and maybe play up once its driving

nope, its from the trans, but not sure exactly where.

i do know that the reason i got it so cheap was there was a suspected problem with the trans, so if worst comes to worst, ill drop in another box.

Well, thats not too bad. I s'pose just see what it's like when driving over a few km's and see if it can be fixed without replacing the box.
