1935 coupe-transmission removal

[black skirts]

Need Guidance - We have a 1935 3 window that came with a later tranny with
matching original Ford column shift. Always worked great . Until now. The
question is....If I slide the rear back , will there be room to get the tranny out the bottom past the original crossmember or does it have to come out thru the
interior??? Thanks in Advance!!
