Slant-6 727 Questions

[Jacksboys]

Since I am interested in getting parts together for my future slant six project, I was wondering if someone ever offered a new crate 727 transmission for the slant six.  I found a local guy selling one for $75 that has supposedly sat unused for a number of years.  He said it was suppose to go in a 1973 dodge pickup. 

Does this sound correct and does the price seem reasonable? 

Also, I know that some of the transmissions were longer that others.  If this were for the truck, which one would it be?

Thanks in advance.

truck would use a long tailshaft which is the one needed for your car

Does the price sound reasonable?  I think it included the converter also.

$75 for a core is reasonable , make Sure it is a 727 though , i never recall seeing a 727 for a slant 6

Yes,they made 727's for the slant six in trucks. The pan will look like this.

IIRC, they also offered a /6 - 727 combo in taxi cabs.

I also remember hearing that too.   

Here are a couple pics.  I am pretty sure it is a 727.  Does it look right to you?
