Does anyone know why the IRS bug pan I just got has a serial # on it that starts with 11614. The body has a side gas fill. Big pile of parts.
As far as I can see on the web that's a # for a 1966 swing axle car???
Any help would be appreciated.

What he was trying to ask you if the pan has been modified for IRS -- a lot of swing axle pans have had the IRS pivots welded in, so it could be a '66

Just take your finger and rub inside the tunnel near/around the numbers that's where you can find traces of the welding easier

stripped paint and felt inside tunnel around ser#

Still no indication that there was any thing out of the ordinary.
perfectly smooth as far as i could reach and some slight dimpling where the #s are.
????
All the welding and fitment is stock.
Crazy.
Will have the #s run to see whats up.
