Re: Help identifying a 3spd transmission

That is a Packard three speed, probably from a '35-'38 120. I'm stunned that it has been converted to accept the Chevy torque tube driveshaft as Packards had open drvelines. That was some serious work. I think I can see the Chevy rear housing brazed onto an adapter plate replacing the Packard rear bearing retainer.

As to seals, the trans had none at the front and a normal lip seal at the back. I'd guess that is not there anyway because of the mod.
