Muncie 4 Speed Date Code
Yes I am a newbie but have a question - duplicate post from newbie thread. I have a 1970 W-30 with a 4-speed marked POS21B. Came out of a W-30 with a trim tag marked 11D. It is a very tight delivery date tranny to body but is it possible ? My thoughts are the car would have had to have been assembled the day after Thanksgiving 1969 ? Any insight and opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

wouldn't a Nov 21,1970 Trans date code be for a 1971 car ?
because roughly July 1, 1970 is when they start the 1971's being built +- (?)

Cosmic, as I updated in the other thread, Muncie documented the MODEL year on their trans, not the MANUFACTURE year. Though the two "sync'd up" in the Jan - July dates. The July/August built units will have the next MODEL year's date on them.
