1930 Coupe - interested in your comment that the gear housings are different for each gear tooth size. I have a similar problem to Woodrow - drive isn't meshing properly. I have a standard 1929 so it has a new 18 tooth drive gear which isn't meshing. The gear housing has 21 cast onto it - is this the intended gear size? if so an 18 tooth gear will be smaller and won't mesh. Where do I get an 18 tooth gear housing from? they all look the same/no choice on all the suppliers catalogues.
