Peter is after some advice on restorations and other places for Service. Refer to his e-mail below.
I was speaking with Peter this morning and interestingly his Stag was one of the first Stags that General Sporting and Automotive (GSA) fitted
a P76 engine coupled up to a Triumph manual over drive box. Apparently they had a special bell housing made up.

I have been chatting gearboxes lately and one of the subjects that came up was nobody knew of a 4.4 engine with an original overdrive gearbox, the question in now answered, at least one exsists.
It would be a lovely combination.
Good to see the overdrive has survived all this time.

I have a 4 speed P76 manual gearbox, flywheel and pedal box that I was going to fit to my 4.4 Stag I am not sure I will ever get around to fitting it if anyone is interested.
