Hey,
Im currently tossing around the idea of getting my RT142 Corona converted to a manual.
Can anyone recommend me a shop that can do a drive in, drive out conversion as i dont have the space, facilities, etc to do it myself.
Thanks.

Just sell it and buy a manual version of the same car?

Gaurantee you'll save lots of money unless you do the work yourself.

I would sell it and buy another as im aware i would be saving alot of money and time but the car was my dads and he passed away last year so, the car has sentimental value to me.
A workshop has given me a quote of $800 for the conversion if i can get a donor car. I have located a donor car and im currently awaiting a phone call from the owner.
