Somebody asked about these things a while back. Well, I saw one yesterday on
an Inliner's '48 Chev Fleetmaster. It is a cable-operated mechanical
overdrive with a 30% reduction ratio. Replaces a section of the torque tube
and looks factory - even has a kickdown connection to disengage OD for
passing. Anybody know anything more on these? I would be interested to know
when they were made and if they were ever offered on trucks.
