RESTORING THE COMPONENTS
 Del Carpenter power-cleans the 302 6-cylinder engines that powers the Futurliner. |
 Jerry Sigler has just removed the right gear motor for restoration. |
 In this picture is the engine and transmission(s). Through the two windows at the top of the picture is the engine. Connected to the engine is a dual range Hydramatic transmission. Bolted to the back of that (lower part of the picture) is a two speed gearbox. This combination provides eight forward speeds. |
 Don Mayton poses with the Hydramatic transmission. |
 This is the 3 speed/PTO transmission that is at the rear of the Futurliner. |
