Thanks Mike, I need to find the #s on the trannys to make sure, buyer beware I guess!

Their all coming to your place Stubbs :)

Dr, I love living in a place where your neighbor has a stash of old shit everywhere, now just gotta check the other neighbors.

The F4W71B 4 speed is definitely pre '80s made. The FS5W71B 5 speed I can't tell from the picture. Both are for an L series motor though.

If there are any markings it will be on the passenger side of the front case somewhere near the reverse lamp switch or the drain bung and will likely say or L71B or LZ71B. There may be a code stamped on the very top of the bell but I've never been able to decode it. The automatics are coded for year and month of manufacture but the standards make no sense at all.

I have one 71B with NMCA cast on the back tail stock. I was told Nissan (Metal or Motor) Company Australia  (I forget)

That's what using a '75-79 radiator with a NAPS-Z does to you. 

 

Look at the clutch master- my 74 had the same shadetree engineered master,  Someone used the diagonal-bolt master from an 80s Nissan.  Mine was bailing wired to the firewall, and as I expected to keep the truck maybe a year (rusted out, beat to hell $95 impound auction purchase) I didn't bother to change it...  until the master finally failed 11 years later.  

 

 

 

That NMCA...  I swear I have a transmission somewhere with "NMCA Japan" cast on it.  But I could be way wrong.

A 1960 splitscreen panel!!! i jokingly asked if its for sale, "make me an offer" i laughingly say $100........... "sold" but you have to move it.

He removed the front beam and it sat that way for 30 years, it took 2 days to winch it out,down a bank and get it home. I thought i would share this as an adventure of sorts, always keep your eyes open, you never know how or when. Its sold now, WAY to much for me. Rory
