Hi Andrew, I may have a rear for you! Its currently in my 70 Hornet that is snowed in. I plan to do a v-8 swap in it so I will be changing the rear. Where in VT is your Aunts place? This weekend I am constructing a new Brew room/Man cave in my basement. Building the bar next.

I have the floor shift (with T-14) now but I do have the NOS parts to install the OD unit (turn signal stalks with OD button and wiring harness.) I'll keep my eyes peeled for a good small body rear axle with a 3.08 or lower ratio. I think the weatherman is saying you're gonna get more snow.
