Lanny · « **Reply #5 on:** February 01, 2005, 07:26:30 PM »

Do I get extra points because my Berg 5 has been apart 5 times? That stain on highway 1 is still there... ^_^

Berg Trans, Is that including the guy with the Ghia (the one Lanny painted the pan on?) Bruce T, and Hanawas?
I know they are not on the road yet but It sure seems like more people are going that way now.

Darren Dilleys new car has a 5 also..polished housing I might add..gusseted Rhino, etc etc..

I've heard this is Dougs latest project. I think your split is probably gonna be the first on the block..Hmm, the first with 2 Berg 5's? BTW, some update pix would be nice.

well, I did mention I had a car to test one in.......... And I will exchange the extra 4spd conversion kit I have for a 5 kit. But after I tire of drag racing and I retire from Boeing and move to Arizona, Nevada or Florida, I'll be building a baja to phart around in, does a baja need a 5spd(?) . A '51 baja...........

While I have done tons of work to everything, the car still looks the same, body sitting on saw horses, engine on stand, pan on jack stands. It would be the same old boring pix. But with any kind of luck it could be painted in the next couple of weeks.........

5 with 5.

AFAIK, Hanawa's is still in kit form.

Lanny · « **Reply #16 on:** February 03, 2005, 07:36:11 AM »

A guy named Robert Marziale also has a 5. It's in a Ghia pan I built a few years ago. He just has to find a suitable Ghia body..

Trevor P · « **Reply #17 on:** February 03, 2005, 10:51:29 AM »

Guess I can't join the club since I'm not a Vancouvernite (is that a word?) But for what it's worth my Berg 5 is sitting and waiting to go into the 56 pan.

Shane · « **Reply #18 on:** February 03, 2005, 03:32:52 PM »

Back to the thread..... Was at Airspeed today and saw G-Dogs ride, very sweet, excellent colour choice I might add...... Looking good can't wait till this summer

We're Vancouvians Trev.

Get off your ass and install that trans. You've had it for 4-5 months now. I bet mine is in before yours! I got my engine and trans out last night. I'm fitting up for the mid mount next, then comes the BFH to make room at the front.

jim martin · « **Reply #25 on:** February 04, 2005, 06:48:43 AM »

as a proud member of the unofficial exclusive club......5with5.
we welcome all others to install a 5 speed and enjoy all the benafits of a close ratio gear box and the crusing fun of 5th.get of your tails and go get one today.

imagine how good gripping this in your car would feel

James Buchan · « **Reply #26 on:** February 04, 2005, 07:01:19 AM »

You guys should call it \"High 5\" like the kids show and you can sing and dance to kiddy music.....

Lanny · « **Reply #27 on:** February 04, 2005, 07:34:43 AM »

Nivag doesn't like 5's..he's into 4 reverse gears and one forward.

notchback · « **Reply #28 on:** February 04, 2005, 12:21:15 PM »

Thats all the rage nowadays

dannyboy · « **Reply #29 on:** February 04, 2005, 12:32:58 PM »

hehe, super close ratio, not much for highway cruising i hear.....
