Re: [FWDLK] TRANSMISSION COLORS

I believe I saw a photo once of the painted engines being handled on the assembly line… It had the bellhousing on the engine when it was painted.

 

Ted Dudley pointed out though: “I can tell you that the 1957 & 1958 Chrysler & Imperials with 392 Hemi's had Non-Painted bellhousings and adaptor plates.”  Maybe they handled the hemi engine differently for painting?

I agree with Dave.  Bellhousing is engine color and the trans was left bare.  The only time I saw the trans rust was  when I sand blasted it and left it to the humidity

I have seen the bellhousing painted the block color, and the cast iron left bare.  If anyone has seen different, please let us all know.
