Lloyd Young?
 

Lloyd Young in Ohio was making BW overdrive set ups for Model As as late as 2015. Does anybody know where his parts may have ended up (assuming not the scrap yard)? I need the coupling that he used.

Re: Lloyd Young?
 

He passed in 2018 and his collection of about 25 cars were auctioned off later that year.

A couple of names and contact info for new business owners in this link:

Of course I dug through a huge box to find Glen's info, and now here is is (above). jeepguy, please let us know how it turns out.

Thanks for the link & info, I’ll follow up tomorrow during business hours

So for all of you who have helped me here’s where I’m at; I just got off the phone with the man that actually made the needed coupling. Don’t know yet if he has one (he wasn’t sure but probably not) or if he will make me one (he hasn’t committed to it yet).

Thanks for the update - let us know how things end up going.

Jeep...the coupling broke, or what?

Gene, the dam thing got lost andI know that the minute I buy a replacement the missing one will show up (I think it’s in the barn of the guy I bought the OD from some time back but he can’t find it). I got a chance to speak with Glenn (now 83), he did the machine work for Lloyd Young on the overdrive conversions. He has agreed to make me one as he still does some machine work as a hobby and he remembers how they were made I just have to get some measurements for him.

Jeep...I feel your pain from frustration.

Over the years I have came across a car or two that I otherwise would have bought, but buying a car that is in pieces, or not all there is a no-no in my mind, for instances just like this one.
