Default Drive Shaft Help
Going next week to recover a few missing parts from where my car set for years and years before I bought it. One item is the driveshaft. The car is a 1970 Trans Am. Are there any distinguishing marks that I can look for? What about specific lengths? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I have an extra original ( from a 1970 Formula with TH400) with only light surface rust. Can get pics. Can sell it too as I use a TH350 Drive Shaft for my Overdrives.
