Picked up some known good 6 speed shift cables from Ron yesterday after the car left me stranded and stuck in...I think 3rd gear?...Either way, it was too high of a gear to get home in where I was at, so I already got my first tow
So I put the new cables in, which was pretty straight forward, take out the center console, take out battery and tray, then unhook cables and tug. What a PITA it was though, Ron told me it would take ~3 hours or so, I think it took me 3.5 hours with some help. Car now gets into all the gears, but 1st and 2nd are still a bit notchy, I'll need to adjust it some more. So thanks Ron for the cables and thanks Dave for helping me finish things up.
