Is that the 1975 revision?

By Royce Peterson - 12/19/2002 4:12:16 PM; IP 64.12.96.170

There is no reason to believe by looking at the original cars that any ever came with an iron tailshaft. I recently was privelaged to help get a low mileage two owner GTE out of Rip Van Winkle storage and like all the other 427 GTE's it has an aluminum tail shaft housing.

I am wondering though if anyone has the earlier L-M master part catalogue. There are some parts in the 1975 revision that have superceded earlier ones, this might be one of those.

Would love to hear Kevin Marti's report on the VIN, the more I think about it the more likely it seems this was a GT500 (not KR).
