Sorry, Michelle. You're talking to a guy who's already put over 5 Grand into tranny work alone on the first SVX and am now going deeper.

You've put too much into Penny to just slough her off. How much would you spend on a new car? How much would it depreciate, the moment you drive it off the lot? Probably more than the monies you'd put into the transmission repairs. Previous expense is less than what interest on a loan would cost on a new (or newer car) plus insurance costs.

If enough of us with know-how were there, we'd jack Penny up and do the work for you. All you'd have to do is buy parts (and maybe a case of beer or two), but, unfortunately, we're scattered hither and yon. We're with ya, girl, even though we're not there. Hang tough.
