How to tell what transmission is right..

Found a 100 dollar escort wagon. Automatic, you know, 1.9 liter engine.. What I need.

It's one year off, and I was wondering if the transmission would bolt to my engine.. I heard that there is a different bolt style between the 95/96 in some.. Is there a way for me to tell?

I'm pretty sure you guys know about my car by now.. But..
96 escort LX hatchback/ 1.9 Liter SEFI/ 4 speed automatic.

Any way I can make sure I dont waste 100 bucks?
Thanks
-Scott

If you can find a nice guy at the Ford dealer parts dept then have him check to see if it was the same part number both years.

Well that would be nice, but I just figured there was a simple way to tell if it was the correct one or not. When I do searches at different websites to see if they have my part, if I use 1996, I get SOME 1995 escort transmissions to show up. And when I look up 1995, there is two different types of transmissions, a TJ and a TX with a different ratio or something. I wonder if the VIN tag tells you...
