the accompanying pics are of an automatic trans currently installed in a 1966 Dodge Dart GT with a later slant six engine (five freeze plugs, 280xxxx casting number, tapered rib behind the water pump housing, spark plug tube head).
It's difficult to get a clear shot of the driver's side pan rail on the trans, (and I apologize for the upside down pics!!) but it looks like the following numbers are clearly present, with no sign of alteration or other damage:
2538386Y 234668-
That's it; no "PK", nothing else I could discern. There is no "bump out" on the oil pan, there are 14 bolts on the oil pan and the overall length is about 31" from bell housing/engine plane to the end of the tail shaft housing.
It is a floor mounted shift in what looks like the original console inside the car.
I'm hoping it's the original trans with the smaller torque converter hub (installed with a spacer in the later large hub crank?)
I'll have to buy the car to find out!
Any thoughts?
