This came with my 47, not sure which trans it's for. Anyone seen one of these before?

Yep - big truck 4-spd mini-bellhousing. Useful when adapting modern transmissions - fabricate a flat plate adapter to sandwich in between this and chosen trans. This is the piece you need to use a Dwight Bond adapter...
 
It appears to be new, never installed, but has rusted from sitting in a leaky trunk. So which modern ******'s will fit this? And does it have any use in a car?
 
I'd like to see pictures of a T-5 mated up to it. I have always heard the T-5 is a great ****** to put behind a Flathead.
 
Ralph - Be sure to note the adapter plate between the T-5 and the hogshead. It's not a direct bolt-up. Good luck.
 
Yea, anyone got plans to make one of those adapters. Cornhuskers wanted $500 for a complete kit. I could make one of those with a template.
