Re: {Chrysler 300} Trans ID

[Ray Jones <1970hurst@xxxxxxxxx>]

My 300L had a console and when I blew the trans, I had to have it rebuilt as the shop did not have a console shift trans available. Although I have rebujilt many of them, at the time, I did not have the space or time to do it.

My Hurst had a console but the factory sawed off the column shift lever, and wired the shift linkage to the frame.

It Looked like a "Good Ole boy conversion."

Ray  See all yall in Fredericksburg this fall!

In 1964 the console shift cars used a different valve body from the pushbutton cars. I don't know if the 1965 cars had a difference between the column shift and console shift. 

The 1965 cars went to the slip yoke except for the a-bodies.

James, maybe I’m missing something here? 1965 300’s did not come with push button trans. Cable shifted console and column shift only for all C-bodies. I believe it was 1966 they went to the hard linkage and did away with the cables.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to ID if a 727 trans is a cable shift versus a console shift from the outside?

 

I have a trans that is an EARLY 1965 spare. Rail number  F2466112 1587547 which should mean Flint Wednesday December 1^st 1965.

 

This in the MPB shows as an early 1965 383-413 with 4-BBL.

 

It is a flange not a yoke type. I understand they did a mod-year change from flange to yoke.

 

I would like to know if it was a console versus a push button without having to open it up.

 

Thanks, James
