Lauri, Oh Lauri..... You have dated yourself, my dear! If you had said Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Molly Hatchet or Joe Banana's And His Bunch you could have gotten away with it. But Canned Heat....... All these "Kids" on this net are too young to know who Canned Heat was!! For all you 'youngsters' out there in "Pine-land", 'The Heat' and another San Francisco area group you've never heard of; "The Grateful Dead", were the epitome' of hard rock in the mid/late 60's and early 70's....... Regardless, the part about proper utilization of the bass speakers was priceless. Thanks for giving this old guy a chuckle!! Carl ps... Lauri, they probably never heard of a "reefer", either!!

Yes, that it must be. You put a suitable jack to your bass booster. And you have that booster facing upwards under your car. When playing Canned Heat with maximum power it will rise your car and you can change tyres. What a genius system! You must support the vehicle if you go under your pine - in case of a tape snap. You might use a CD instead of a tape, too.

All synchro has reverse gear at left side, and there is a hump for it in box case. But you sure knew this already.

Hi Jan (and interested others), It is a non-synchro gearbox and will fit my Sunbeam Talbots so has to be from an early Rootes car but I am trying to determine if it is originally from possibly a Sunbeam Rapier, Singer Gazelle (Hillman, Commer?) of perhaps an early Series Alpine. The reason I am asking is that I am in need of a good reverse idler gear and if the cars mentioned have these gear ratios mentioned below, I can widen my search for an idler with the 15 - 19 teeth. Thanks for the responses so far, Bob At 06:28 AM 3/30/2009, you wrote: Hi, Where is the reverse, at the left or right. At the right makes it from a later Series IVA or V.
