[Fot] best gearbox for TR6

[Bill Tobin]

I dunno larry, I got my conversion from Eaglegate, who was also from New 
Mexico, and it bolted in. Plug and play. Works great, shifts smoothly, 
and  (so far!) reliable.

Me being me, at the time, '13 I think, I picked up two spare 
transmissions. Celica W58. For about $175 each. A friend with a wrecking 
yard looked them  up yesterday: around $550. No, they are not for sale!

I believe a guy in Kansas City took over Eaglegate. If anyone is 
interested, I could look it up.

Cheers, Bill
