@John_s – Sorry if I keep asking but I’m legally blind and can see picture details. Also I happen to be traveling in Asia and will return to California April 3rd. If I win bid I make have delay in getting motor shipped but should have no problems getting funds to you. Of course if I’m successful. I plan to instal motor in my 42 Continental ...
Not a problem at all, there is a stamp for A31622 on the bell housing and a tag that is attached to the engine with the build date of 12-11-47.
@ClassicAutoApp – I believe picture 10 has the build date and picture 11 is the stamped number on the bell housing. Thanks ...

@John_s – It should have a letter in front which matches the vin number of car it came from and indicates exact model year. I thought I’d might be on bell housing for 1948 model years ...
