Ok... I remeber years ago looking at an Old Dodge COE or delivery van, cant remember which.

I DO remember it had the flathead 6 engine and what appeared to be a 5 speed transmission (I went thru the gears and the knob also had a 5 speed pattern, I think)

Foundthis model of truck, similiar to what I had seen, on the web:

Anyway, for all of us always looking to get more on road speed, how come this avenue hasnt been investigated further?

Or has it been?

Is there a reason NOT to use one of these 5 speeds? Is it not an overdrive 5 speed I am thinking that it is?

Dave
