Isn't that '69 and up...or is it a late '68 thing? Greg. I'm not sure the exact date the 68 started having machined pads, but I have noticed some. This one was cast 4-30-68 and had an assembly date of 6-5-68.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Here is an example of Chrysler's quality control at it's finest. Keep in mind this is on a /6 '63 Dodge that was never molested and 90% original paint when I bought it. First, the original VIN was obviously wrong (one on the right) so they tried stamping OVER the wrong one to make it match the VIN. Then they stamped the CORRECT one right beside it! 6557807-VIN.jpg (122 downloads)

NYC	Out of curiosity, seeing a learning opportunity, I emailed the guy asking him why there were two sets of numbers on the tranny. He said, "first set is serial # the second set i think is dates or line numbers" Then I asked, "Shouldn't they be in the same font?" He said, "thats how they came" So then I asked, "From my experience, they were the same font. You sure it's #s match from the factory?" He replied, "yes i had it a a mopar show" I think I still have a lot to learn.
