HELP I need an ST400 Transmission or transmission case !!!
« on: September 27, 2019, 07:28:00 AM »
Wanted:  65-66 ST400

Hi gang, help, I need an ST400 trans or at least the case.. I broke the rear u joint at Cecil county GS meet last week.The break shook the drive train so hard it cracked the bell housing. I need a case to swap my internals into. I'm willing to buy an entire trans and may need a flywheel as well. we haven't taken it apart yet.  I'm in the Cleveland OH area. This kind of time sensitive because I'd like to have the back together for Bowling Green.

I have a complete 66 ST400 trans out of a 66 Riv sitting in a shed on my parents farm in VA.  I would be glad to sell it if you are willing to drive that far to get it.  It is near Bedford, VA.  I took it out of the car in 1989 and it has been sitting in that same spot ever since. The car had been off the road for 10 years or more before that (425 engine threw a rod).  So it was working last time the car ran, but has been sitting for decades now.  Complete with Torque converter and dust shield.

I'd like to thank everyone for their reply's to my post. They were all most gracious. I ultimately found one reasonably close to home. (Carmen Fasco had one). And to being famous, the 1968 Great Scat car is not mine; oddly enough I almost bought it at the nationals in 1994 or 95.  I missed the boat on that one. Super cool car.

Thanks again to all,

Jerry
