Title: Does this Transmission Numbering and lettering look correct??
Post by: dannystarr on January 23, 2010, 11:46:36 PM
Am I losing it or is this a restamp. The whole frigg'in trans is near smooth but RIGHT where the stamps are... I asked the owner and he got pissed at me and said no way. However he would not guarntee it in writing. Please look at the pictures and tell me what ya think. I think I see other old numbers...Danny

Good call.
Both the engine and the trans in the car are restamped.
124379L502229 for reference.

Hey Kurt, I was looking at Jerry M.'s book this morning and it kinda has some rough pitted area's near a trans stamp. Can you explain to me how you know for sure it's a restamp. Do you have the original stamped car in the database? What do ya mean 124379L502229 for reference?...Danny

I looked at the stamping pics a little bit ago. Both are not original.
The VIN is there for reference if someone is doing a search.

Ok, check... was just wondering. He just didn't understand I guess. To bad, it's a nice car. But same as what has been said before. You can sure hide alot under that pretty paint job.

This gets very frustrating very quickly.

I agree, lots of BS out there....
I'm not sure if the POP is original or not.

That one is not even close to being correct with the stamping.

Thanx guys, that's what I thought from a rookies point of view. I was kinda proud of myself how I detailed the pictures and such. Anyway, one for the purist guy's....Danny
