Transmission for 64 bug

Postby jmiller » 15 Sun Sep, 2013 5:26 pm

Hey, Anyone have a good manual transmission for our Dune Buggy. It's a 64 pan with a 66 1500 CC motor. Or recommend somewhere to pick one up??

Thanks,

John Miller

Hi John,
Great thinking to have a spare transmission around and ready to go in case there is ever a need.... right? :roll:
Seriously I hope you're not having too serious of issues with the buggy....

While I don't have a spare trans-axle laying around, you may want to try your local Craigslist.org, although a bit of a pshaw shoot and you may already have.
I can't recall your specific location, but I found this in the Austin area.

There's also TheSamba.com. Again maybe you're already looking here too. I'm not seeing much there, in Texas at least.

Good luck and I hope someone else here can give you a better response.
