I signed up for the facebook a100 community group, as it seemed to be the most active. I already posted that question Gary about the tranny situation and everybody said no. I too had wondered, well was a 1964 a100
a pushbutton ( answer was no). And also I wondered about that 1965 one year only quasi typewriter transmission issue and they said no. We shall see. Haven't got it back here yet, (bought up in Washington).
The guy had rebuilt a 318LA engine and Pat blais rebuilt the tranny. But hadnt got around to installing motor. Hence the "missing " torque convertor issue. The motor and trany alone was worth what I paid for it.
And the body on the thing is amazing, very solid and rust free, even the roof, which is a real issue on these things. And darn near straight.
No worries, whatever issues or missing pieces I find, theres a complete one lingering in a junkyard about 30 miles away.
Really stoked to get it home and get cracking on this thing.
Neal,
The converter should be fine.

Just added another 62-65 mopar to my stable. I found a screaming deal on a very solid/straight 1965 Dodge a100 sportsman 12 window van. The guy basically lost interest in his project and just about gave it away.
It comes with a rebuilt 318 and 727 loadflite, but he hadnt got around to getting a torque converter yet , so I need to find one. Is the tranny in these , what is called a 727 Loadflite, basically the same as a 727 torqueflite. I know they look different.
Also would the torque converter from a 1965 318poly 727 work. I have one of those laying around.
