clutch question

I *think* I have an original drivetrain, but I don't know for sure.
Shawn says that the "H" on the block means that the motor was built
in Germany for a Horizon, so there's at least the possibility that it
was swapped at some point. I really don't think so, though; the car
just feels too much of a piece.

If I have the money, that's what I'll do. I believe I can adjust
some slack out of it, and if that can hold it 'till tax-refund time,
I'll definitely get a new one. I only want to do the job once! If
it goes out before then, though...
> Ahhh 1981 . . . what color?
A very well-preserved gold. Believe it or not, all three of my
'roccos were gold! That's not by choice; I just bought what I could
find. One is primer gray, the other white, and the driver is the
original paint. I mean, you wouldn't believe this car is seventeen
years old if you saw it!
