Chris,

These are the kind of tranny serial numbers found in late '64 Tigers. 
Depending on what they want for these trannys, I'd buy them just for the 
parts even if they didn't have the right tail sections. I'm thinking maybe 
you could take the best parts from each and make one or two good ones, but 
that's probably wishful thinking. If the shifter locations look the same as 
your Tiger's, then I'd bet they are the right trannys, give or take 1/8" 
measurement error.

I'm sure someone else on the List can not only tell you for sure, but give 
you an idea what a good used tranny is worth.

Good luck,

Bob
