In my notes I have this:-
=E2=80=9CR=E2=80=A6Overdrive(Laycock)
U=E2=80=A6Gearchange found on centre of floor ie not on column. =
Basically, means floor change.=E2=80=9D
I asked very much the same question as you about 3 months ago. My =
=E2=80=9Cnotes=E2=80=9D derive from Steve=E2=80=99s answer at that time. =
I guess BMC was trying to impose some sort of system(?) into their =
apparently haphazard production. And I suppose it=E2=80=99s a way of =
differentiating from the various cars that were shambling down the =
production line. Westminsters, for example, big saloons with +/- same =
engines as 3000s=E2=80=A6.they might have had column shift. I =
don=E2=80=99t recall. Nice cars and the Vanden Plas versions sell well =
today. To digress even further, Westminsters were ideal for =
=E2=80=9CBanger Racing=E2=80=9D=E2=80=A6.big, heavy and practically =
indestructible. Hence there are so few Westminster automatics around to =
donate their 3:54 diffs.
Happy Christmas,
