Last photo... of I believe an actual 727-A.



Fred , this to me looks like the trans from the first pic , its a cable shift 65 , not going to work for you . yes its a smallblock 727 but its not what you want to use .

there is a number stamped on the side of the transmission on the driver side at the pan rail , have the guy give you those numbers , no guessing as to what it MIGHT be .

your question on a 10 yr old rebuild thats been sitting , i would take it apart and check the seals , possibly reseal it , a gasket kit is cheap , but then again i have the tools and the past experience to freshen one .
