Dahitman44 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Looking at buying the wife a classic car for her 40th. 79 trans am looks great but has a rear seal leak. A buddy is a mechanic and said it would run about $1,000 cuz we have to pull the engine. It has some hail damage and the battery doesn't stay charged -- alternator?Any thoughts on this? T-Tops and is in really nice shape.guy wants $6,000.??Hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinarc Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 sounds like it needs the rear main seal only on that u would have to remove trans to get to. That is a pretty good price. Don't know what else to tell ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim17pike Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 1000 bucks seems kinda high if he is a friend those engines are not that hard to pull (if thats what you have to do to replace) have to see myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
