Maybe I'll just do the tie rods, the rear main seal, the oil pan related issues, and the power steering and see where that keeps me for a bit. Then, deal with the tranny maybe when it get really bad and just drop in a used one at that time. This way I fix what I have to have to continue to drive the car for now. I don't think the head gasket leak is bad at this point either so it may could go for a bit longer too. The rest should make it. Thoughts???
