I believe that Pete Haldiman (sp?) bought that trans and Spring Fling. I email Steve to find out but have not found out for sure yet.
....there is nothing like driving my 1968 Hemi Dart around town and having people looking at you like you're nuts!!

Pete bought one out of the Mopar Knights club members swap spot. Not from the Clay Smith booth. I think it was Steve with the 65 Hemi altered. But he wasn't in his swap both.
Not the same trans as that one in the Clay Smith booth at Vegas. Different tailshaft yoke, has fluid trans line, no sticker, more rust on input shaft....
Early in the day, Pete mentioned to me would like to have one and asked B&M if they still had anything for them (No, BTW) So later on I spotted this one out of the corner of my eye in a swap spot.
Mopar Ron said they were streetable. There are some tricks to running them on the street. I forgot. 
He did say a clutchflite would send you in the backseat even at low speeds!  Sounded like a heck of a lot of fun actually. 
So what are the parts needed to complete this as found? Any special clutch or throwout bearing? Any tricks to setting up the trans?
Steve, you are correct. Larry from the knights had the swap space and the transmission belonged to Steve Patton. Steve wasn't there tho. Larry, Rob and Chuck were.
Also, not sure if Steve still has the altered wheelbase car. He's running a blown hemi in a willys now. I "think" he may have sold the a/b car, but can confirm.

It's too bad we don't have a clutchflite expert on the board. Sounds like there is a lot of interest!

GY3, your PM box is full. The CF will work with any 3-finger pressure plate but the B&B is preferred. Without a converter to cushion the shock of the shift, the shifts are pretty violent mostly because the throttle pressure is run wide open like all RMVB's. There's no reason the throttle pressure couldn't be throttle controlled like a stocker, especially with the availability of cable setups. As many of us oldtomers have reminisced, those of us who ran the CF back in the day are lucky more of them didn't explode, a Super Sprag and rear band apply would be considered mandatory nowadays. Here's a link to my CF photo album: http://s22.photobucket.com/albums/b311/root66/727CF/
