As you well know I love Hudson engines. So what I have a garage filled with them. Other people collect buttons I collect Hudson engines.
I kind of like those OD tranny's got to get me some of those as well. Practice rebuilding them. I am not happy until I can do it blindfolded.

What? Don't you know that engines belong in the yard and the chickens go in the garage. Sheesh... 
How different is rebuilding an overdrive trans vs a non-overdrive trans? Better keep your eyes open when rebuilding. Nothing worse than lifting your foot from the accelerator and going into reverse.

Unless they are totally crap on the inside, are they worth $350?
And how much would one "expect" to pay for a rear end that would go with this?

If you got a Hudson engine and OD tranny for $350 you would be doing good.

So those ten that I bought for $200.00 (total) was a good deal after all.

Yes I would consider that a ok deal. I know how you are relentless Dave, working them over until you get those 10 and they pay you $200 to take them.

Sean,
You know how it is and besides, it's a lot of work to haul all those 308 Twin-H engines around. Now, I have someone who wants me to haul off body parts. Will it ever end?
