Note, Item is: 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado drivetrain 403 Olds engine

On the west coast there is motor/trans in a GMC (TZE) frame. They are asking $1000. (I also have no connection to this whatsoever.)

GMC 1978 motor/trans/in frame - $1000 (Auburn)
<http://sacramento.craigslist.org/rvs/2138272943.html>

Being a "26' rolling frame" it might be worth the price... if close enough to transport home cheaply. Didn't someone pull a rolling frame "6 down" behind a big pick-up?

The whole thing is useable in our coach. Engine would need a cam
change and the tranny might not have the extra added clutch dish and
the lower control are would need to be up graded to the heavier style
lower ball joint, but for parts it is all there and can be upgraded.
