Hello guys, I know a little about cars, ive built a few 355's in the past, but I'm looking a a 89 Chrysler Conquest here locally.

Its $600, in good shape, but its as is, supposidly they never tried to start it or anything (ive heard different)

Bad part is its an auto tranny, NOW, i know a few people that work there, and they said theyve had it running, but the tranny is bad.

 

Now, for the question, i love the way the car looks, so im going to buy it and see if i can fix the tranny first. If not, my neighboor recently blew up his isuzu PU, and it has a 5 speed i can probably pick up cheap. I know id have to convert the car, but to my understanding the tranny should bolt right up to the motor.

 

First question, this is the only conquest car within a 200 mile radius of me. Where can i get the pedal, and clutch assembly to turn it into a manual if the tranny is bad?

I understand some cars have parts i can use.

If there isnt one, i have a few turbo 350 tranny's, where can i get the adaptor i read about that allows me to use a turbo 350?

 

Thanks for the help guys/gals :)
