Ok i just got my hands on the car for next to nothing, the only car i have ever had with OD is an old v8 capri my old man put together(im from the uk ...not alot of cars with OD period) and that had a switch to select it.
As far as i can tell its the 700r4 gearbox.
So my question is where the hell is it?.
ps. you guys put engines together well 180k and running sweet as a nut ?(
Is that the same van Mr. T drove?
lmao, looks similar, goes like stink for a van to i just spent an hour going sideways round the industrial estate here, still havent sorted out the overdrive though, was hoping one of the yanks here would chime in :D
My family had a 91 Astro. And the OD button was located on the blinker arm end...theres a little circle we use to push in on the end.
hope that helps.
Cheers.
Cheers mate, found it :D not exactly easy to find! especially when your not use to sitting in the wrong side of the car, cheers for your time.
Now smash it through some empty boxes and post it on youtube!
Starbuck - didn't you just tell that...naw...forget it. My mind must be playing tricks on me. :whistling:
Its because I watched this the other day

Noo..poor van, what type of ppl are you!, on a more serious note ill either have my fun and ebay it for 5 times what i paid for it (which was my excuse to the misses for buying it) or ill drive it till the van falls off the engine, give it a rebuild then wedge it into some old ford (blashphemy i know).
I must be losing the plot, im sure your post said wall of bricks and not cardboard boxes
