Hi chaps and Ladies,i am new to this forum,my name is Phil,ive just bought a very nice 1983 Austin metro 1300 Auto (1275 engine)i am looking to convert to a manual gearbox. The auto box in the car is fine ,just a bit clunky coming back down through the gears ,but fine,i also have a spare Auto box box if any one is interested(not tested) So i am after a manual gearbox if any one has one,could do a deal with my Auto Box's or not ? ,oh and i also have a very nice Austin A30 1955 803cc.
