Yes, it is clearly a "CT". Maybe a truck or motor home ?

I find the best way to have no problems with toys
is to moonlight. I moonlight,wheel & deal and restore cars in the mornings
and then work my 3 to 11.
All my toys come out of the extra money, usually
cash.

Lojac,
The
TH400 and TH700 are different lengths.
You
will need to shorten the drive shaft if you go to a th700. Not sure of the
length, people will tell you to "measure your car".
The
trans tunnel on the pass side at the firewall will need to be dented in a
bit for clearance with a TH700.
