  1. The imput shaft and gear on the end are one piece.

    12 teeth count for 1946-48 M-5 transmissions.

    If it is worn so is the blocker ring and clutch sliding sleeve behind it.

    You need to look for damaged rounded and worn teeth carefully.

    Pull the 2 bolt plate at the rear of the transmission and pull out the tube screen filter and see what metal if any is trapped in it.

  2. I have done so many head bolt and head stud jobs...

    Seems o matter  what penetrant you use, how much blue tip, careful firm hammering, time spent waiting ...

    you still cannot be sure of success getting a head bolt or stud out in one piece.

    Have driiled out and welded onto a lot of broken off bolts and studs over the years.

  3. The wiring (tecently done) is a mess...don't buy it unless you can road test it on a good long drive thoroughly.

    The "Tip-Toe" shift transmission with Fluid Drive  better upshift and downshift properly.

    Those brake and clutch pedal pads are really worn too.

    Have a very knowledgeable old car mechanic check it over carefully including using a hub puller to check the front and rear brakes.

    Steering wheel is all broken and crackednunder thatbwheel cover.

    Love the front carpet.🤩
