If you have to pull it...bring it out this way. It'll give you a chance to hook up with Sam and me...heck, I'll spring for a barbeque at my place...

I went home at lunch and started thinking about trying to pull the motor and tranny myself. The motor is fine but I might as well do a little detailing while it's out. You may see me sooner than later...crank up the barbie!

Either way, tranny or not...come on out. I'll get the 'cue going...

I just pulled the tranny and semi-steamed off a mojority of the gunk. If anyone is interested, I can take a few pix.
- the 6 lug conv had the E7 on it
- a few darker big C's ink stamped
- I found 1 stamped letter J
- the outer case had a CX ink stamped on the passenger side 2 o clock position.

I couldnt find a VIN stamped anywhere. let me know if anyone needs to see pix of what I found. I can take them tonight.

Can someone post a close up picture of a 1970 CY trans paint stamp on the bellhousing? Thanks to Chad I have one photo but it is not clear enough to see what the writing is on either side of the CY. TIA
Rick

Thanks an amazing finish on a 40+ year old ID tag. What
are the particulars of that vehicle? In other words, was
the trans out of the car and stored inside for many years?
I found a CX trans that was removed in 1970 and stored in
a garage, but the ID tag still looks 40 years old.

What's the secret?
