Thank you to everyone who responded!
I got it all torn down just to see what I had, housing has a small dent in the back but overall just dirty and not rusty at all. Gears look great! 2.76 ratio open 741 case. At bare minimum I can say I bought a decent start to a center section for $50 and most of a housing :lol:
Lets say I do the cutting and welding parts myself, how much am I looking at $$$ wise as far as new axle shafts and brakes? I see Dr. Diff has most of what I need but I was hoping to have this under my Dart for less than what all the new parts will cost.
As for an appropriate A-body rear end... I haven't seen them within driving distance of me in Southern California for anything less than $1000 which is more than what I can afford right now.
In the mean time I will keep on driving my 7 1/4 until it blows up, its just do difficult to hold myself back from mashing the gas pedal as I am pretty sure my 360 will grenade it pretty quickly
