Yes. It's the original engine. It won't shift into third gear, after having the transmission rebuilt in it three years ago (talking about the Comet Caliente here). Distributor shorted out, again, and there's a short in the engine (easy fix). Gonna have that all looked at, along with the shocks. Doesn't feel safe to drive, the back has sunken really low. Just gonna get a ballpark estimate before I continue moving forward. :\
