RE: {Chrysler 300} 1964 or EARLY 1965 727 valve body console shift cars.

That is why I am asking anyone with one apart from a known console car to look at the casting numbers. The other thing is items get switched around when rebuilt and the like.

This one may have been a car that was set up for hot rodding as the valve plate looks like some work was done on it and it had an aftermarket deep pan with the extension for the filter. The transfer plate has cracks.

If it is correct for a 300K or 1964 early 1965 Console shift then it is worth the effort to save it. If not, probably not.

Could possibly from some other vehicle...a truck, RV or such!

Anyone happen to have a trans apart or the pan off and can tell me the casting numbers on the valve body?

I picked up a spare trans and I pulled the pan off and the valve body and the casting numbers (one on each side) do not correspond to anything I can find in the 1963-1964-1965 Master Parts Book. It may well be that the part number for the assembly is not the same as either of the casting numbers.

Because I have no idea what this came out of, other than an early 1965 car, just before the mid-year change in transmissions, I do not know if this is a console cable or a push button cable or what.

The two casting numbers are:

2400340

2464549

Also, if you have one accessible, may I get a high definition photo of the plate side. This one appears to me modified and it also has some cracks. Someone was into it and probably tightened down too much on the screws when installing the adaptor for the deep pan.

I don’t know if it is worth saving this valve body or not. If it is a console shifter version then probably it is worth welding up and milling.

Thanks to anyone who can help.
