1968 ramrod
Does anyone know if any of the 68' ramrods were built with automatic trannys? If so, were they a th-350? TIA

They only came with 3 or 4 speed standard transmissions.

Manual transmissions only. One thing to remember: the TH350 wasn't introduced until 1969, so it wasn't a possibility in '68.

How about 69, were all ram rods manual trans? Or was it the 70 w-31 that was available with an automatic?

They were both available with the 350 automatic.
Are you trying to I.D. one?

No, I was just curious what transmissions they were available with. Just needed a history lesson.
