My S5 project car auto to manual swap

[one320fc]

finally finished my S5 project. This was my first 7. It was an automatic which needed and engine build. Swaped the automatic or awfulmatic for A 5 speed from A 1988 GXL parts car along with the limited slip rear from the 88 as well.
This was worth it all I preformed the compleate swap on the 1989 includeing all the original S5 wireing to make all the cruse and other options on the car function as well. The Tranny brackets were cut from the parts GXL body and cleaned and fited on the S5 body. Yes this was the long way around but it got the job done neatly and worked well. Alot of work measurment and planning the location, But again it was so worth the effort. Nice and sturdy mount using all the original hardware.
The manual brackets fited beside the auto brackets on the frame makeing it possible for you to mount either tranny in the car. As I don't know why you would want to go back Automatic but there there in the event.
Here are some pics of my Swap.
