That is where the 'Hardcore' moniker came from! There have been other moments but I believe that was the start.
Don't have any leads on a 700R4 but I will keep my eyes/ears out.

I pulled a 700R4 from a wrecked Caprice taxi at the Lakewood yard once. Pooring down rain, laying in a puddle with hood under me so I wouldn't sink too far in the mud! It was f'ing COLD! That was lame.

Because a taxi transmission will surely be in excellent condition.  |
