1967 A-body Big Block 383 4bbl 727 Automatic Transmission

Interesting string........I have the same transmission stampings in a 1969 (early build) convertible big block - A Body.......This car has the correct motor and the correct rear......the car's build date was September 1969......could it be that it might have been fitted with an early left over 1967 transmission? Being that maybe a new casing possibly was not yet available on the assembly line? Maybe using up old inventory???? This transmission has 67 stampings on it as well....I like MOPARPARTS position better than MrMopartechs postiion.....although I appreciate and respect boths passion for this hobby......So add the number 2 to my 7 digit code and this trans is built in early 1968 like the one for sale......I have to believe that the gurus white book gets it right and that the 10,000 day calendar does not apply to the 1967 trans.....

Could this perhaps been a factory odd ball that was used as old stock to complete this early big block convertible being all other numbers on the car appear to match.....I hope so....but am skeptical as of now......


I own a 66 formula S that has the "V" badges on the belt trim and grille which were only put on a few early cars as the new barracuda insignias/badges were not available just yet....so, there are lots of factory nuances that go into this hobby........

Perhaps there is still hope for a full numbers matching A-Body convertible here.....

I can't imagine that so many transmissions were not stamped with a 2 on that last number sequence.....did they have a tech that was missing his #2 punch?????....MrMopartech? Thoughts???
