I remember rebuilding the transmission in my neighbors Honda CT70H when I was 15. I ordered the parts at a honda dealer, stripped it down and put it back together! Wasn't sure of the timing so I had him take it to the dealer to put the chain on since I didn't have a book. The transmission had a stripped gear and was obvious but in my hurry I didn't mark where the chain went before I took it off.

I had a 69 Z50A I tore down on numerous occasions. Loved it. At about 19 I started playing with the big boys, I remember buying a 70 charger for 300, told the guy the truth it could be just a head gasket, could be a cracked head or block.

Turned out to be the gaskets. I put like 40 bucks in gaskets and fluids, traded it for a gob of guitar junk LOL.

I bought a 70 cougar xr7 for 300 also. Smoked like crazy, 351C 2 barrel. Trans started slipping, checked.. fluid was low so I filled it and it went for another 3 days.... fluid low again.
Put it on the hoist to remove the trans, first thing I pulled was the vacuum line off the modulator and oil started pouring out. BINGO. Replaced the modulator, like 14 bucks back then and the whole thing came to life. No smoke except from the rear tires.
