Rare 3 speed overdrive trans soon to be available - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**GMCNUT** · 10-06-2020, 11:04 AM

Found a lady selling off her deceased husbands stash of 1950's and 1960's pickup parts here in Alabama and I am going to drive over and acquire all of it in the morning. Among the interesting parts I spotted was a seldom seen original 3 speed overdrive transmission and bellhousing. the two were separated so I'll have to wait and see if they truly go together but assume so. Anyway, until I load it all up I won't know what all I am really buying, but I wanted to tell all of you about the 3 speed O.D. because that is a very highly sought after changeover trans with many enthusiasts in the 60-66 crowd.

Text me at 256 486 1988 with 60-66 parts wanted and I will check the stash and see if its among these items I am getting tomorrow or something maybe I already have

I have two of those laying around and one in my truck.

I also have one in my truck and picked up a second one as a spare. They aren't that rare, but do command a decent price because they are a great option to add overdrive without having to change a whole lot to the truck.

Nobody ever has one off a 60-62 GMC or I'd buy it
