I have a 1964 W500 318 without an auxiliary transmission. Anybody have a W500 with one? If so could I have a brand & model #. Or input on anything that works for you Thanks

Not sure why you would have an auxiliary transmission. 4 SPD or 5 SPD trans would have been available for that model, But why would it have and where would an auxiliary trans go in it. Special order possibly.
I can see a 2 spd rear end possibly with some sort of safety interlock so it could only be in Hi or Lo as needed for four wheel drive. :thinking :thinking

Aux trans is something that would be used in many makes of trucks. Widen your search to any yards that specialize in medium /heavy duty trucks. :thinking

Didn't MikeMc have one in his McMobile? There is a thread on it several pages long in the member's build forum.
