: Need parts for a 79 in seattle area Black SS 06-23-2005, 11:18 AM I need to know how much a windshield and radiator will cost me for a 79 el co will cost. My tranny just went out on my Riviera, but the 455 is still running strong, and I want to know if it is cheaper to pick up my friends el co for a $1000 and put in a windshield and a radiator or if I should get my Th-400 tranny rebuilt. Thanks... txbusa 06-23-2005, 11:53 AM You can buy a B&M TH400 at Summit Racing for $989.00. Keep the Riviera!!! What year?

What have you done to it? John 8) dughrt 06-26-2005, 10:36 PM If you get the parts from a wrecking yard you can fix the elky for a couple of hundred bucks. You will want a pro to reinstall the windshield but you can get them pretty cheep from the u-pull-it AHSOM70 06-29-2005, 03:37 PM there is a complete, but non running 83 elky on www.seattle.craigslist.org right now for $300. Supposed to be in Redmond. worth a look. -Ben | ||
