Mr. Blair (Jim):

  Mr. Blair, would you be so kind as to post this to the amc-list for me, 
please? I've been a reader of the list for more than a year (I have a '65 
Rambler Classic 770) and have tried to post a few times but I've got 
"something HTML" going on with my Yahoo mail account and my postings always 
get bounced. (( Come to think of it, I think I have a non-html mail account 
but I'm using a library computer and am limited to 1/2 hour on it, not 
enough time to hunt down the other mail-accounts registration info. )) 
Anyway, this post is too important and time critical for me to get it 
bounced.

Subject:  San Diego-area Tranny Help Desperately Needed (' 65 Classic)

I've been really, Really Blessed the last year or so with help from 
friends -- they've kept me from having to live on the street or sleep in the 
car -- but I need a bit of help none of them have the expertise to provide.

I'm actively looking for full-time employment (after having lost a job a bit 
ago due to a black widow spider bite), am on unemployment (my sole income), 
and the tranny in my '65 Rambler Classic is giving up the ghost (slipping), 
thus making it more and more difficult for me to
get to job interviews.

Is there a transmission mechanic in or near San Diego that will do some work 
on the tranny for me -- in trade for some limited amount of $$ plus some 
? -- so I can get to job interviews and get a job and get OUT of this mess I 
find myself in?

In addition to what little cash I have that I can proffer, I am also willing 
to "trade" whatever skills or labor I have (writing? [ nationally published 
writer ]; copy editing?; editing/proofreading?;
customer service?; work around the home or office or shop or ?; also have 
some familiarity with HTML; ... willing to do whatever is needed. I just 
have to keep this fine example of an automobile going for a couple more 
months till I find gainful full-time work.

(Starting off, she slips in D1 and D2. If I downshift to Low, I can get 
going, but that's getting worse, too. I have the shop manual but am leery of 
adjusting any bands myself; done a lot of work on her, but never done that 
before, and from reading the manual it seems there are
a *lot* of possible causes of the problem and I have neither the time nor 
the money to experiment.)

Please, if you or anyone you know ... I can't tell you how much it would be 
appreciated.
