Perched on the naughty step
Got a real nice Fairey overdrive for sale, its been stood in a 1969 series 2 since 1981 after it failed mot on rust.

Taken it out and given it a good inspection to check the teeth and everything, the overdrive is perfect. Comes with two of the clutch roller bearing, gear things as well as the complete linkage and I think I've got a new tab washer somewhere too. You'll just need the gasket although silicone will do

As you can see no chips on the teeth and the oil is still golden! No idea when it would have been last changed but I presume sometime in the late 70's!


Open to offers on it but as you know they're worth a pretty penny on ebay ;) so if theres nothing tempting its off to there! Last one I saw went for £580 :eek:




 
Ouu... i REALLY want an O/D...

Does it come with the leaver and all that too? i.e. it literally just needs the gasket / silicone

Have you attempted to fix it in any way, shape or form? Just thinking about your ability with v8's and all that...
 
Everything it needs is included minus the new cork and paper gasket but as said you can use silicone

Not messed with it other than to take it out of the box, as long as theres no cam shaft it seems I'm ok!
 
Got it cheap then! 500 plus seems to be the going rate for a good one, if it doesn't sell on here I'm going to stick it on there and clean it up so its nice and shiny

That's why i bought it! If i get it and it's not quite 100% it can go straight back on, sold as seen and will probably go for more than i paid :)
