I race a 1961 Jolus Formula Jr.(one of four built in Australia).  It is
fitted with a Holinger (s?) transmission.  It is an upside VW swing axle
case with the shift lever coming out of the back i.e. in the stock VW
location.  The innerds feature 5 speeds and "dogs."  The input shaft has
broken inside the diff where it's splines go into a coupling which has a
gear on it.  A friend said that the box looked like a Webster.  As this
is my first experience with anything but production based transmissions,
I am lost.  Can anyone give me any information on Holinger?  What
suggestions would you have for getting parts?  Thanks for your help.
