Recently I have purchased a 54 Monterey with a 272 in it. The previous owner say the trans was overhauled 20 years ago. well the trans shifts beautiful but no third gear to be found. My local trans shop is stumped. He un hooked the throttle pressure linkage and we drove it around and still no third gear.. any help appreciated! Beautiful car,no third gear! Bummed out!
