69 Olds Muncie

[cook_dw]

vin stamp 39M19678

I have your trans.

[Stefano]

I think your last 6 is missing a number? Also there is an olds lost and found page on Facebook.

[cook_dw]

Ill look again & verify & I dont do facebook sorry. If someone wants to link it to here or copy it with my email that would be great.

I will add it to the FB page when the full VIN is figured out.

Stefano you were correct. <span style="font-weight: bold">39M196787</span>

Also I didnt notice before but 2 of the ear have been welded. I also found another Olds main case and it too had 2 ears welded.. Those Olds machines must have some torque!!

Actually I think those broken ears occur more often from someone trying to &quot;pull&quot; the trans into position with the mounting bolts when the new clutch disc isn't aligned properly. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif

So technically it is the torque, but from some gorilla trying to torque it into place.

Yep -- there are those &quot;gorillas&quot; out there that think this installation procedure will &quot;seriously&quot; work!!

I've broken the ears of of one Muncie transmission
When my clutch exploded in my
Old 71 442 hardtop I had as a kid.........
I wish I still had that car.
