was hoping someone else could tell me - tranny fluid all over the place when it came out - so it had fluid in it...

1.6 car with 145k miles on it - stock drivetrain

i didnt hit anything .... bought the car from a guy who decided to sell it because "something went wrong with the tranny"... I've got a 5 speed sitting around from my recent 6-speed swap, so i figured I'd pay the man $1200 and get a running car (price included a mint hardtop)
