Well I got the car up on jack stands to look for trans #'s and saw what looks like a hole in the oil pan.
It looks like it froze and swelled ! The bottom of the oil pan is swelled out and round. So in full disclosure the engine could be completely ruined. It got dark on me I'll investigate more tomorrow.
The number i found on the trans is 392566 from looking online it should have a 1 or 0 on the end i must have overlooked it. The tail shaft # is 3978764. If anyone wants this car make me a offer.

I came across a swelled out oil pan on a motor which sat for many years exposed to the elements. Turned out to be ok, but to be sure you could pull the intake manifold to look for cracking in the lifter valley.

All '70-'72 F-bodies have "70" on the tail light lenses. The '73 models are the only ones that have the "73" date on them.

VIN stamp on Transmission should be on the pass. side pad just forward of the tailshaft verticaly.I am watching the auction with interest but you will need to confirm that it is indeed an M-22 and the motor is not grenaded if you want to get anywhere close to the $ you are looking for.

I can look for the numbers tomorrow. As far as the motor being grenaded I haven't seen a rod hanging out of it but it is for sure locked up
I dont really want to pull the heads and intake but i might if it don't sell on ebay.
