Decoding/Numbers / Re: 68 Camaro 4-speed Saginaw tranny

Thanks to all you guys for giving me info.
I believe the speedo cable goes into the driver's side of the tranny.
As a matter of fact, my speedo always shows 10mph slower than what I'm doing.
Maybe cuz it might be a 1973 tanny??
Is the number 18N35286? the VIN?
If so, does the tranny VIN usually match the car & engine VIN???
I can't wait to get my car out of storage so I can take a closer look at things.

The guy wants $750 for the Apr 02 tranny.
Since I'm new to Camaros, is that a fair price??

Ed
The car was built 05B, 2nd week of May.
Car VIN = 124678N432264
Engine VIN  =  18N432264
What tranny do you think should be in it??
I just ran across one for sale with a date code= R8D02.
Is there a place on the website to check tranny VIN numbers???

Thanks Kurt.
If the date code was R8S02 (instead of R3S02, maybe the 8 looked like a 3)
& the VIN# was 18N35286x, would that be the correct tranny for my 68 Camaro built 2nd week of May?

Ed..(or anyone)
Before I stored my 68 Camaro last fall, I wrote down a lot of numbers.
The number 18235286 was also on my tranny.
Is that the VIN? If so, does that tell me what car it came out of??

Thanks for the info, Ed.
Since I'm in MN, & my car's in storage, I won't be able to check the tranny VIN till then.
When I do, I'll get back to you.
If you hear of someone with correct tranny for my 68, let me know.

The engine VIN has the same numbers as the car VIN.
Does the tranny have a VIN on it??

I'm new to this forum, so I hope I'm posting this in the correct spot.
I just bought a 68 Camaro convert, 327, 4-barrel, 4-speed, 12-bolt rear-end.
I discovered your website & it contains a wealth of info.
It looks like my car has the correct engine/manifold, rear-end, but maybe not the tranny.
My tranny is a 4-peed Saginaw with a cast number of 3925656.
The date code is R3S02. Is this from a 1973 built on Nov 02?
Since my car was made in the 2nd week of May-1968, what would be the correct date code.
According to the CRG forum, should it be R8???, where ??? is A-F (Jan-May)?
If so, does anyone have one for sale, & would anyone like to by mine. It works great!
