Looks to be a clean car. Even the drivers fender. Ripping down a car is a lot of work/hours/patience. Makes it easier to tackle rust and paint, but you are without a car due that time. Other get them running/driving and fix areas as they drive it.
It's still a a833 4 speed. They just got creative with the ratio. First is 3.09. Third became .73/ .71. And forth became the new third, which is why you have to flip that lever.
That looks to be an aluminum case. If so it should be an overdrive trans out of a 76 to 87 truck. Brewer could sell you a new one or you could turn yours down to 4.81. The case isn't bushed for the secondary shaft. With use this gets ovaled out. The 3-4 shift lever points down. 3-4 rod may need...

I think the kyb's were designed for a stock type suspension with 60/ 70 series tires. I think if you were to put them on a car with upgrade torsion bars, sway bars and a 40 series tire you would find them stiff and want a Bilstein that is valved the opposite of the kyb.
I have been using the same piece of clothes line for the last 30 years to rope glass in. Put the glass in the gasket and then the rope in the gasket starting from the bottom. I use spray can glass cleaner as a lubricant. Set the glass in the opening. Pull one side of the rope around the first...
