Aldwyn,
While true most of the time, it is possible to add a switch to the J-type
gearbox to allow the car to shift into OD in second gear, even if it is a
j-type.? I know of one list member who has done exactly that, with a converted
4 speed to j-type gearbox.

If it's working in 2nd gear, then it's the older A Type overdrive, as the J
Type only worked in 3rd and 4th gears.?
