A stumpy transmission is 26.3 inches overall length -- the same length as a Datsun 1200 transmission. The classic 'stumpy' is the 71C tranmission from a Skyline, although there is a 63-series version commonly called a 'shorty'. These are the right length for a 1200, and the shifter comes up in the stock location, though obviously they are much larger around. There are 4-speed and 5-Speeds in this length.
