Well I understand what you're saying. I was actually planning on taking some time and rebuilding one though for several reasons. I guess I was under the impression that since I'm going to the trouble of totally overhauling one, it's not really a big deal to find a "starting point" and making what I want out of it. I've been looking for a stinkin transmission for 3 weeks now...swap meets...Ebay....word of mouth. You can see in my other post about being pissed that I don't do well on Ebay. I've just run out of options...and I would like to get started on this now...for a good winter project.

These were just two available, inexpensive options to me, and I was thinking about going for it. Because it may be 6 months from now when the "perfect" Toploader decides to pop up.
