I have a need to replace a 4 speed transmission in a '63 (Spyder) and may not
have a '63 or earlier 4 speed available. It will be temporary. I have several
'64 and '65 4 speeds and some '65 transaxles and have a couple of questions.

1) Can I use a 64/65 tranny on the '63 differential with the proper input
shaft? (Will the larger shaft fit through the pinion shaft, I know I would
have to replace the seal)

2) Can I use a '65 transaxle by just using the early axle yokes? (no
speedometer)

3) Can I use a '64 transaxle? (I assume yes)
