Hollander interchange book says most everything car related from 62 thru 64 with a 383, 413 or 426 has a trans that will work in a 62 Imperial. Even console shift trans works if valve body and separator plates are interchanged. Hollander interchange number is 747. I'm not gonna be any more specific because they list versions from A thru F, and say not to use A or B (361 & 383 Dodge/Plymouth, 2 bbl Chrysler's) because they are lighter duty, even though they will still fit. Talk to a tranny specialist, but you are not up a creek just yet.

The 727 in the '62 full-sized cars (Chrysler, Imperial, Dodge 880) is unique because the parking brake is mounted on the rear of the tail housing like previous years. Last year for that on passenger cars. All other '62 models had the parking brake on the rear end and had a park mechanism inside the tail.

I agree with John My sons 62 300 had brake on tail.Change trans to late model and rear end and you can use late Ebrake setup.Have to change drive shaft also.IIRC 62 Imps had a strange rear end with what looks like small sprins besides the normal leafs.My oldest had a 62 that he pulled the rear from decades ago.Rocky

Yes, highly desirable for swapping into pre-'62 Forward Look cars. Most (all) adapters to mate the 727 to FL engines require a small block case so only the rear part of the trans is needed to swap into a SB case.
