Probably, but transmissions are easy to swap...


1955 1st GMC Suburban | 1954 GMC 250 trailer puller project | 1954 GMC 250 Hydra-Matic | 1954 Chevy 3100 . 1947 Chevy COE | and more...
It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

If its original it would have to be a SM420 because the 283 was only available for a short time and the 420 was all that was available in those years as far as 4 speeds go. But as Steve pointed out, who knows what someone has installed in the last 50 something years.

I guess I'll go and have a look then. my trans needs a little work, but it's a daily driver, so I want to get a second transmission, rebuild that, and use the weekend to install it. thanks!
