....even street rodders have moved on. Back in the day over drive was hard to come by in any form, that was then this is now. A tremec 5 speed is the answer.

I recall a time when Ramblers, Fords, and others had that most sought after "option" of "over drive"! If you didn't have OD, Hone-O-drive and a few others like it was the ticket!

Leycock De Haviland. The English answer to the OD problem. That unit found it's way into LOTS of MG's, Healeys and the like. It would NOT stand up to high horse power however!
