Hi All,

Is anyone reproducing the CY transmission with VIN stamp?

Thanks,
Dan

Never saw a tag with a VIN. They were stamped with date of manufacture [387 = 1/21/69], trans suffix & serial number. The blank CX tag was reproduced years ago; stampings had to be added.

Thanks William. This is our first direct experience with the M40 and I was confusing the date of manufacture with the VIN.

Good for him - Back in the early 90's I remember he was the tenant next to an Electrical Contracting firm I interned with in Warrenville. Most days I'd wander through his shop to see what he had. Several years ago I ran into him at his place just off the lake in Lake Geneva.
