Had to go back to the dealer and get a new gear to finish sitting it up. The parts guy called it a 8 1/4. The one I think you talk about is the one with a tin back plate like a 10 or 12 bolt chev.????? I think. I remember that type of rear in another friends 273/2 barr Cuda of the same year. Of course that was a very long time ago and before the Army and life messed with my brain.....LOL.

The '63-'65 A bodies came with the 7 1/4 rear end no matter what engine or trans although it is thought some of the late '65 235hp cars may have been built with the 8 3/4 that was available for 1966.
