My brother (who also owned the car before me) is a mechanic so I'll have him help me with the brakes. That's unfortunate that my exhaust rusted out. My dad thinks it's up by the manifold and thinks it'll cost quite a bit to replace. :/

I may also have my brother help me with the transmission. What all does converting the car from auto to manual entail? (Besides installing the clutch and replacing the transmission itself)

EDIT: Are there any other transmissions out there? Jeez it appears there's only one on eBay, and you have to look really hard through google searches to find one. How much better would it be to just look through local junkyards?
