Default my missing child ( kind of ) returned home

Years ago i had to let her go ,when I was needing to build our house.. I sold her to a guy that took good care of her. When sold she was perfect . Any way he sold her to someone else who abused her ... 18 years later a friend said he saw her out of state for sale of face book and called me . I went to extremes to bring her home..And Home she came...

I got it home and it may take a few years to redo everything again ( a frame off) .. the bed has a dent ,( it had all new factory panels ) , door is dented ,fenders are dented ,fiberglass hood is broken ,body mounts - radiator supports are missing , cracked windshield ,all interior is trashed , the 454 that was in it was really nice ,11to1's ,ported heads , studded top and bottom , now the motor is missing and has a stock 454.. Its a mess... anyway , If it never gets fixed fine too ,she's home.....

That's awesome.

I have transmission that may interest you.
Manual New Process A833 w/ OD 4wd
dual pattern bellhousing, complete from shifter ball to crossmember. Only .05% trucks ordered this RPO
"Very Rare, said to be Special Order Only some places I found available info on these transmission. Dodge has used them way back in the 60's in Cast Iron form behind 426 Hemi motors so they obviously have some stength. Chevy units come in both Aluminum case for 2wd and Cast Iton for 4wd. GM RPO codes to look for are MY6 and MM7.

Total of 4 speeds, with 4th gear being Overdrive. Gear Ratios are very close to that of a 700r4 4 speed Automatic Transmission. Dodge variety came in different ratios depending on the vehicle application since they also used it in passenger cars. GM only had 1 set of gear ratios. Here is the gear ratios compare to a 700r4 4 speed Automatic

GM New Process A833
1st 3.09 2nd 1.67 3rd 1.00 4th .73 OD

GM 700r4 4 speed Automatic w/ Converter Lock Up
1st 3.06 2nd 1.63 3rd 1.00 4th .70 OD"

Thanks Mr. George I'll keep this in mind and research it a bit.. Shoot me a PM and I'll keep your info.. Right now the truck still has a 400 turbo with reverse pattern and I had an adapter/ output shaft made to accept a 205 to it..

Nice

I wish some of my old children would come on home. And a nice long list of some very special vehicles that would make.
