Unless they put some deeper gears in it, that 700R4 was a waste to install.
Similar 1st-2nd ratios as a Torqueflight, and OD with 2.76 or 3.23 isn't going to help mpg as the engine lugs too much.
 
Those pictures are more detailed.
They are not better pictures. :D

Definitely not a $12,000 car.
 
The GM tranny swap sets off all kinds of bells. Who did it, how well was it done and why, particularly since 727s are relatively plentiful and bulletproof.

Nice to see that the 1970's ghetto style hood lock is still alive & well!

Seller must live in a FINE neighborhood!

I've seen the car in person and it's indeed in horrible condition! He offered it to me two weeks later for $9k. BTW: The seller told me that the pre-owner (over 80 years young) put a new vinyl top on the roof and it really shows...:lol:

What is the 29 roof called and what’s the other?

I call the 29 roof unpleasant, and the 23 roof beautiful or the 29 roof the Chevy rendition designed by the marketing folks who wanted something that looked more like a Chevy and the 23 roof the real Chrysler version meant for a two door fuselage by the designers who knew the difference between mundane and great.

Good thing they only tainted the 2 door Plymouth models with that roofline!

I realized that was your real question @tallhair but i am not aware of any names that Chrysler's Plymouth Division attached to the 29 roof.

"Formal" sounds like a good guess though.........
