Hey thats aweet deal. I've got a five speed for your 79. 79-80 trannys are shorter, the tail housings are shorter. you can use a 81-85 tranny but they are longer. you would have to enlarge the hole in the tranny tunnel. then I believe you would need a different tranny cross member, I think. Oh and a drive shaft. If yor interested let me know good luck!!!!!!!!!

Lets see some pics of your new acquisition.

cant go wrong for $100.



reminds me of the time this guy i know sold his rx for $300 cos he thought the engine was blown... the new owner put fuel in it and was on his way with a great deal.
