Chuck, I think you have assumed something not in evidence. The voiceover said that Packard had "the new economy of overdrive in our automatic transmissions". There was no mention of gearing or alternate rear-end ratios at all. Go listen again and if you hear aanything said of gear ratios or different rear-ends let me know. I listened carefully several times and never heard him speak of any rear-end gearing. And - changing gear ratios still does not imply overdrive or is any substitute for it.
