    Take a look at this rust spot, please.

    The old 700R4 questions!

    Slightly off topic but! I was a Service manager at a Chevrolet dealership when the 700R4 came out and we had about a billion transmission fails.

    What did you pay for a square

    I got my 73 in 2019 and paid $5000 for it. Sold it in 2022 for $24000. I bought the yellow 79 for $2900 this spring. Yes that is a Catfish on the door and says public works. It had belonged to a small town on the Snake River..Lots of work ahead for me on this one.
