Guys,
I am the recent owner of 0786 and trying to find the original transmission. Believe it or not, I have talked to all 4 previous owners, they are all still alive.
So I just talked to the second owner today. He was a drag racer and tore out the RUG-S and sold it in Taylor, Arkansas. He had a scrap yard too I believe. Or at least made a living out of buying and selling parts.
So anyways, I am looking for a 1967 RUG-S sold by Harold Clark around 1970/1971. He said he put a C6 in it and back then he never thought the car would be anything special, everyone just thought it was a funny looking Mustang.
Anyways, Taylor, Arkansas is in Southwest Arkansas, quite close to Louisiana and Texas.
My car was built on 1/24/67.
I will pay a finders fee for anyone that helps me located this transmission.

786 is a nightmist blue/black interior 4 speed GT500 original delivered to republic Ford, in case anyone didn't get that from the previous post.

Yep that is correct Brian.
Thanks !
I had heard of one getting sold nearby (Texas) on eBay that had a late January build date. But that was back in 2005. This goose chase to find the original transmission will be fun!

CORRECTION
HOWARD CLARK just told me that he was in DeQueen Arkansas when he sold this transmission.
