A friend bought a Hurricane Sandy water damaged 10 year old Ferrari from NYC.
Apparently it was in a flooded underground garage.

It is stuck in gear.  The clutch throw out bearing used my
annular hydraulic cylinder invention I invented back in 1969.

You cannot get it out of gear without
oil pressure. There is a DC motor power pack that powers up when
you operate the ignition key. That is not working.
Other than the electro hydraulic shift mechanism, the six
speed transmission is entirely conventional. See the pictures.

Does anybody know how to get it out of gear with out the
electrical system working?

The transmission would be ideal for an RX8. The small
displacement, low torque, high HP rotary really needs a fast
shifting  transmission like this. To get any kind of acceleration
at high cruise speeds you must shift down several gears in the RX8.

BTW the 3 rotor RX8 race car has beat this car in the Rolex GT races.
