Mikes and I are in the process of doing a deal on a transmission I have for sale and I suggested he has a third party E-9 forum member come drive my car to verify it's function as it is a long distance sale and I want him to be comfortable with the sale. Below is his request he had in my "for sale thread" but I am putting it here also as I think it will get more exposure. Thank you in advance.

LA area e9 owners. I made an offer on for the bell housing, flywheel, clutch fork arm, slave cylinder, transmission, and shifter, plus price for removal and shipping to Maine, that Verde2002 found acceptable. Verde suggests that I might be more comfortable if a third party drives the car to make sure the transmission shifts smoothly and doesn't have any strange noises. Is there anyone out there that has time to stop by and take a drive in this 633 csi before it comes apart? I am going to replace seals, bushings, and the normal consumables like pressure plate, disk, throw out bearing and pilot bearing, so I just want to be reasonably certain that I won't have to have the transmission rebuilt.
If everything works out these parts are destined for my just purchased '73 CS to replace the auto trans.
If someone can drive this car I will leave it to you to work out a schedule with Verde2002.
Thanks,
