[JM 35 Sedan]

Off topic a bit....but I did the "poor man's" version of overdrive in my Avatar '35 fordor last Summer. Put the later '39-'48 synco gears, 29 tooth cluster, & 15 tooth input gear/shaft in original '35 case, plus 3.54:1 rear gears. This combination works great for starting off in first and then winds out for a good long time in second and can cruise all day in third at @ 65, or more if I care to, averaging ~ 18 mpg. I'm now sorta thinking 3.25:1 rear gears may have been even better.
