Classic/Antique Car Repair: transmission leak, speedometer cable, transmission leak


Question
My 1966 mustang has a transmission leak.  i have taken it to a tranny shop and was told it was from the speedometer cable.  i have had the cable replaced and still leaks, any ideas?

Answer
Nothing profound comes to mind.  If the fluid is coming out around the speedometer cable fitting, there is a bad seal in there somewhere - I'd take it back and hold their feet to the fire until they find it and fix it.   There really can't be a lot to this problem - nothing expensive, anyway.

Good luck.

Dick.
