Flackmaster-I could see no number at the differential.
I do not want to cut the original propeller shaft. Could you get a replica somewhere? greetings Gerd

Many thanks for helpful comments and the welcome. Thank you also for the very significant contribution of flackmaster.
@Guscha and Tobs: Thanks for the help offered. I would like to come back to it. I have a one-year repair odyssey behind me. Had previously only contact with Max Merritt and Kanter. But the car is now running like clockwork. But I have minor problems that I will best represent separate forum. The 51 MayfairOverdrive gear I have not yet purchased. It has never been installed and is a NOS part. The transmission ratio range is: 1st ... 2.03: 1 2nd ... 1.28: 1 3rd ... 1: 1 Overdr. 0.61: 1! Rev. 2.65: 1 But perhaps the installation of overdrive of Gear Vendors better choice would be if I get a complete kit. I would like to compare between two options: -Costs (Installation would make my workshop) -What variant brings the optimal transmission -Possibility of dismantling At the moment I can not longer tours over 40 mph driving otherwise I suffer with the engine. Ideal conditions would be about 65 mph. So I am no longer an obstacle in the rush hour. However, here come on stronger wind noise and you have to concentrate on steering. I am also really looking next year at the Germany meeting. All I know currently unfortunately. I am also a passive member in the Swiss Packard Club. Sunny greetings from Bavaria Gerd

Does anyone know whether it is possible installing the override gear of a 1951 Mayfair 250 in a 1936 One-Twenty?
The changes to the propeller shaft would probably not a big problem. But fits the transmission output shaft? Probably I need a different clutch housing? Greetings from Germany and sorry for my bad english. Gerd
