Most driveshaft shops can make you up a driveshaft with the required
slip-joint - seems like someone had posted the part numbers on here
for the B&T swap a while back but I can't find it (I usually
cut-n-paste stuff like that and file it away but can't find it now,
grrrr). Anyway it's the same setup with a u-loint yoke on the front
instead of the B&T flange.

My '65 has a splined tailshaft with the front u-joint (Not B&T) bolted
to it. The yoke splines onto the tailshaft, and a bolt goes in
through it into the center of the tailshaft. This driveshaft is two
piece with a rubber mounted bearing in the middle. I'm guessing the
front yoke is bolted on to stabilize that two piece driveshaft. I
haven't tried slipping a standard yoke on there to see if it works.

I thought it was 1965. See the picture here for the 1960 to 1964
Imperial
version.
http://www.naimy.net/forsale/1960_imperial_2_pc_drive_shaft.htm
The picture shows a two piece but with a B&T. The two piece 1965
driveshaft had a regular u-joint up front instead of the B&T iirc.
Anyway, yup, the trans itself if a good ol' TorqueFlite and modifiable.
Thanks,
