Not sure if it is the original, I bought the truck with 90K. I presume it is however.

I wasn't really thinking about a conversion, but someone did mention it above. I prefer using manual gears anyway.

OK, another question: How big is the transmission/TC assembly? How much does it weigh (that is, can I stuff it into a VW New Beetle with the passenger seat folded forward, or do I need to rent a trailer to move it from a boneyard?)
