72 Duster: You can lead a horse to water, but...
While he was in town, he drove the car and decided that a manual transmission wasn't going to work for him. We found a center console and shifter locally and started the process of the changeover. He pulled the clutch and brake pedals to install a single brake pedal. I was impressed that even with limited experience, he seemed to understand basic mechanics quite well. He was good at pulling and replacing parts and seemed to enjoy the work. He cleaned the 904 trans I had in the shed and changed the filter.
He didn't like the dingy appearance of the stained transmission case so he painted it the color that the engine would be.
He cleaned the ATF cooler lines and other parts.
