A Type Overdrive -service/repair

[rvwp]

Hu Guys,

Any recommendations regards a business that would service/repair of an A type overdrive.

The overdrive in my 69 restoration has not been run for at least 20 years and thought I might have it checked out before running on the road next spring.

Would be a pain to have to take it out of the car then, might be worth paying the price now to save possible agro?

Cheers

Rich

Hi Rich,

Hardy engineering in Leatherhead are good at OD's

They do Jags and Austin Healeys. They sorted my 4A {A type} nicely two years ago.

I used Cox and Buckles to remove the gearbox on Monday, I drove it up to Sheffield and delivered it early Monday evening. It was hard to find a pub with B&B for me and the dog. Bur we managed it.

Tuesday I went on a tour of Restorations garage and workshop.. It was very impressive and no doubt that is reflected in my engine running without problem for over 20 years. Great for me but a weak business plan for Darryl.

 

I collected the o/d late afternoon and drove it home. It had been overhauled and bench tested so it needs no further adjustment.

 

I delivered it back to Alan at C&B and we were back on the road on Wednesday evening.

 

First class service from ORS after some false starts before by other "specialists"

 

Good luck Richard & H.
