Not that difficult. You might download the transmission and overdrive training manual from the literature sectionhttps://www.packardinfo.com/xoops/html/downloads/TransmissionAndOverdriveTrainingManual.pdf and see if it is something you want to tackle. Most parts for the trans are available from Kanter or Max or maybe Flackmaster although some of the high demand items might be a bit up there. Overdrive is another story.

You can also look thru Henry's 37 limousine blog. IIRC he just recently rebuilt his unit and may have some photos. His has the cane shift but other than the top cover and shift forks I believe the rest is about the same as yours.

You might also check out the Econodrive Training manual also in the literature section and have a read thru the service section. The manual has better photos and maybe a bit more detail than that in the combo trans and overdrive manual.https://www.packardinfo.com/xoops/html/downloads/EconoDriveTrainingBook.pdf
