The 70 400 Formula and 70 TA had the 12 bolt, the others had a 10.

Nice find MA, with the quality of work you and Mike do, it will be amazing.
Did Chris send you a PY credit card yet?

Its a 68 or 69 Camaro multi leaf 12 bolt...a very expensive rear..especially if it has a good gear set....run the codes..i just sold a bare 69 12 bolt housing for 900 bux and the guy was glad to get it.....ive seen drum to drums with 3.55 posi bring 2 large ( thats 2 grand...2thousand bux...clams...well ya get the idea)..70 12 bolts are wider, and the pads are so far apart ya cant bolt it in the car...

But really..id leave it under there....its a a good start to a high performance build...

It's got 4-10 gears, and has a posi. My Day looked at the flex plate and it just lost a bolt and another of the three was loose. The frame mounts are good too.

So how exactly how would one know what gears are in a rear? The guy who had this car told my Mom that it has 4.10 gears, but where is that number or how do you know this info for sure? Where are "the codes"?

I like learning this stuff too, as I will be helping with this project.

yep, but not for awhile nothing will happen with this car for probably 2 years, accept collecting parts for it, as my parents are trying to build a new house and 40' X 80' pole barn for the toys.

Heres pics, you can see its on the right/pass front side, it has all the info, like gear set code, date code..and that lillte E means Eaton Posi..do some research...a factory 4.10 code BE rear can go for 5 grand PLUS..mabe more its a COPO code

this one is BR which wad originally a 3.08 posi

Congrats on the new car MA. I have the same dreams but with a vert instead. Enjoy the journey.

Thanks everyone I'm sure this one will be as much fun if not more fun than all the others, something I've been looking forward too since I was 13 years old. I'm counting on you guys and or Gals to help me along on this one. As Miranda said, it will be awhile until actual tear down starts, but I will start collecting parts now.

Congrats on your car find. It's kind of ironic though. I sold my TA clone and you found your car to build a TA clone. Good luck and have fun with the build.

Don't see anything on those pics lol. Guess we'll check that out once we get under there. Thank you for helping me understand the codes, because I'm clueless where those numbers are concerned.
