Still no luck on finding gaskets for the transmission, especially the one between the overdrive and main castings.

In the meantime I have been sourcing a few other things that will be needed including a fuel sender for the tank. Those on the Henney-Packards for 1951-1954 were interesting as they have the mounting type and general appearance of the 1948-1950 senders but rather than using a bi-metal strip, they send standard resistance to the 1951+ gauge type. I have been talking with TriStarr LLC in New York about rebuilding it and they have been quick and very friendly in their responses. Has anyone here used them or even heard of them?
