Leave the original transmission in it, if you're going to sell it. Why are you putting money into it if you just going to sell it anyways?
Exactly! Doing a conversion on a car you're selling in a few months is a waste of time and $$. There is more to a conversion than you might think.

in my experiences the people that buy the auto cars are people that plan on alot of track time, people that got a good deal on it, and women... that may just be the way it is around here but i donno... personaly if i was selling my car i would be leary about selling it to a female, the ones around here hit everything the see, and i would want a good home for the stang
