I wish I still had photos, but I do recall taking the side plate with shift linkages and forks off to inspect the trans before purchase.

I suspect you mean side shifted, not that the guts come out sideways. I'm reasonably certain that the "small" trans behind 60's Ford six passenger cars (falcon, mustang) is a T-96. Top cover, shift levers out the side. I know (as Frank has been saying) that the bellhousing end of the little ford trans is identical to the AMC T-96 except for the lower two mounting holes. PS: The T-96 is about the size of an 80's/90's GM 3-wire/1-wire alternator, the one we all stick in today. It's REALLY small. _________________________________________________________________ Windows 7: It helps you do more.
