Hi-Speed rear end gears for 32-38 Hudson-Terraplane

ivanz62

I have gears in stock at last to ship.  They are beautiful parts that many admired at the National in Colorado Springs.

They are 3.5:1 ratio and will allow your '30s car to cruise at today's highway speeds.  The cost is $1300 plus shipping from California.

Having these gears would pay you back in years to come in lack of engine wear.   Additionally you would actually be able to tour your car for distance instead of keeping it in the garage.   There is nothing better for any car than getting it out and driving it.   Yes, I have a set.

How have they worked out for those of you who have tried them? They sound very very apealing to me. Potentially thinking about getting a set for my coupe?

Ever since I was on the freeway chugging along at 50 mph, and a little 1920's British 2 door convertible flew past and gave me a toot and a wave travelling more than 60mph I've been thinking of this upgrade -Made me so jealous :-) Hopefully these gears will be around in a year or 2 when I have the funds cheers Ken

Curious. Do you have to change the speedometer gearing as well to correct the speedometer reading?

I would imaging it would have about as much affect as changing tire size does on a speedometer. +/- 5 mph but not enough to do further work as long as you keep in mind your speddometer is slightly off.

Its probably easier nowadays to leave your speedo alone and recalibrate it mentally using a GPS or iPhone to find what it reads at 30mph, 55mph etc.

Or you can put one of these sorts of gizmos on your dashboard, this seller seems to have many varieties.
