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

Carl,

thanks for posting the pix. sorry everything has a red hue, I didnt realize my red trailer would cause such a problem. I did find the vin numbers on the trans...they are so faint that it didnt show up on the pix but they do match.

thanks again for posting them

Great pix. Some of us 'anal types' love this kind of stuff!

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?

here is the link of the car in question.https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/show...e/0#Post339830

the only secret is that the car is a lo-mile Ca. car. I believe it spent a major portion of it's life stored indoors...at least from the 80's, probably longer. I hope this helps? I messed up the tag by putting steam on the case and accidentally hit the tag and peeled a little paint of the bottom...DOH!

After seeing the car in the thread you linked, <--- NICE CAR!

Your CX sequence is #426. Wonder who got #427

Great find.

By the way Jeff, don't beat yourself up over the power washing of the tag incident. We all have one of those
boo-boo's to deal with somewhere........
