Post by Skinnerpot »

Hi,

Does anyone have a Wilson Pre-Select gearbox suitable for a 1955 Daimler Conquest?

Kind Regards
Andy

Hi Andy,
Yes I have got a spare gearbox, selects and drives in all forward and reverse gears , the selector lever on the side plate of the gearbox is bent and has been welded in place which will require attention. if you are interested PM me or phone 01948 840638.

Hi Geoff,

Just a little update (albeit very late!) Thank you once again for the gearbox, I fitted it about 5 months ago and has been driving an absolute dream ever since!

Not taken the old box apart yet to see what failed.

Thanks again. Andy
