and yes,,,, I was laying sideways on the floor when I took these photos and that is why the pictures are the way they are.

I also took the same photos standing up with my feet on the floor and posted those a FABO and FB, so if you want to see the normal view, look over there.

A bit of progress concerning the 4 speed swap in the 68 Barracuda.
Working with Brewers I have new Hurst shifter, shift rods, the 1-2 and reverse are Mopar A body 4 speed rods the 3-4 is an OD rod, also put in new bushings and clips. I plan to have the transmission gone through internally prior to the install.

Interesting item on this transmission is, the S/N pad has the transmission identified as a 3 speed 230 unit. Just another day in the Mopar assembly plant. Also the speedometer gear and housing is a different design that what I have seem previously.

don't know why the photos I post here on .org randomly change orientation. The S/N pad photo is the same orientation as the other 2 photos on my phone-computer-FABO,,, post it here and it flips over 180 degrees,,,,,

That plastic gear / housing arrangement is in most/ all FJM body cars. I am not sure on the change over year.
