Karl Asked:

On a flatbed behind a Uhaul but it was not the trannys fault. I got a used one from the list renouned Coby Smolens at Valley Wagenworks in San Anselmo. That worked good until the head I should have replaced pressurized the cooling system till the radiator exploded at the foot of Mt. Shasta.
Did I say thanks for salting the wounds? ;0

Karl went on to say:

Just for that bit of seasoning, I'm going to hang out with the Wetwestys and camp every inch of this magnificent state and make a quick round trip to New Orleans to go fishing. Lookout! :)
