I donâ??t doubt that Toyota 5 Speed transmissions are smoother and more 
reliable than old Triumph transmissions, but, in my opinion, one of the best 
parts about driving an old car is recalling how they sounded, felt and drove 
back in the day. I love that.  My wife has a newer sports car and I much prefer 
to drive my old Triumph (except the air bags part)  I know itâ??s not everyones 
experience, but I bought my O/D on eBay over 20 years ago and it and the 
transmission have been 100% reliable - of course everything around them has 
been rebuilt over timeâ?¦
  Wishing everyone a better 2022 than 2021.
  Best
  Bob
