Welcome to our latest episode, where we take you deep into the heartland of America to explore the remarkable story of the Myers family and their once-thriving empire.

For generations, the Myers family built their fortune on the booming industries that shaped the nation. From mining and processing valuable minerals to contributing to the vast agricultural landscape, their influence was felt far and wide.

But as the industries that defined the region declined and people sought better opportunities elsewhere, the Myers family faced a devastating reality. In 1981, they packed their bags, leaving behind their magnificent home and a treasure trove of memories, never to return.

Despite its current state of decay, the Myers Mansion remains a remarkable testament to the family's wealth and the region's history. Built-in the 19th century, it was a grand and opulent home that boasted every luxury one could dream of.

Join us as we step back in time and unlock the secrets of the Myers Mansion, uncovering the stories and memories that still echo within its walls. From the family's rise to power to their heartbreaking fall from grace, this is a tale you won't want to miss. So sit back, relax, and let's dive into the fascinating world of the Myers family.

Marty,

One option to diagnose, before pulling the transmission.

Remove the floor mats and floor boards in the front. Remove the four screws that hold the gear shift lever assembly to the top of the transmission. With this removed you can see inside to check the operation and condition of the throwout fork and bearing. Except for the four screws holding the shift lever assembly to the transmission case nothing will fall into the transmission by removing this assembly.

This is based on a '32 transmission.

Marty,

This should help with the upholstery. If you can't get the info you need from the pictures let me know.
