My 1950 1/2 ton has a three speed manual transmission attached to the original 216 engine. How do you confirm the fluid level in the case. Is there a bolt to remove and check the level the same as the rear end. Sorry if this is a dumb question. I could not get much of anything on the search function.

danv,

If you have an original type of 3-speed transmission, there is a hole plug about 1/2 way up the passenger side of the transmission case. That is the fill hole (and it marks/sets the warmed-up-gear-oil fill-level).
