2001 GTP - replaced transmission or stock?

[OldFart]

I recently purchased a 2001 GTP. Looking under the hood, a friend commented that the blue painted transmission looked odd to him and that perhaps it had been replaced. I've had no luck finding a good pic, but the ones I see appear to be unpainted. Car shifts well, I'm just curious.

its possible its been replaced, hard to tell ya know.

Maybe the owner before just liked blue :th_winking:

LOL!
Nah, I doubt he painted it, he was an older fart than me. Original owner. Did they come painted blue stock?

edit: Actually that's not quite true, the original owner was a GM exec for the first year.

they shouldn't have been.

All of the cars Ive seen are the grey, alluminum finish.

Well, I guess it's good news then 'if' the tranny has been replaced. I was just curious about it. Thanks a lot!

Factory is as cast.

Thanks Matt.
Hopefully one less major component for me to worry about.
