1959 was the last year it was available on a 6-cylinder engine and was 
replaced by the A904 for 1960 on 6-cylinder cars.

The cast-iron Torqueflite was a V8-only transmission, as was Powerflite 
after 1959.  The cast iron case Torqueflite and Powerflite were both 
replaced by the aluminum case A727 for the 1962 model year.

                  There are a few items that look wrong on the car. i have 
an original 61 squad car, the steering wheel is wrong, 57 plymouth savoy 
wheels were used. the radio is wrong, rear side trim was not through the 
rear door, not sure if emblem is on rear fenders but usually these were 
deleted also. these used 12 inch brakes on front and rear. needs hard to 
find wide 14 inch wheels to clear drums. there is also extra pieces of metal 
welded to the front suspension, a battery shield, plus other small items to 
be a squad. I have the original build sheet with mine. I have the 318 4bbl 
with torqueflite and 3:23 open rear end. any other questions, let me know. 
Jim
