Overdrive cable on a 67-72 Chevy truck??
I know this is a long shot question...but does anyone have a pic of an overdrive cable, the one that mounts under the dash/in the dash. You know, the one that engages & disengages the overdrive unit?
A longer shot question...Does anyone have an overdrive cable for one of these trucks???

I don't think any of these trucks had overdrive. I could be wrong, as I have been wrong before.

Re: Overdrive cable on a 67-72 Chevy truck??
Several years ago a friend of mine had a '67 with a 3 spd. overdrive unit. From what I am finding out, they were available, but very rare.

I've seen one but don't think I have a pic of it. If I remember right, it mounted under the dash sorta below the ignition switch.

Re: Overdrive cable on a 67-72 Chevy truck??
I had a 67 with the factory over drive. It looked like a park brake release handle mounted under the key switch area of the dash. When pushed in it was in over drive, when pulled out it was in regular 3 speed.
I hate that truck burnt to the ground it was a factory A/C truck to.

Re: Overdrive cable on a 67-72 Chevy truck??
I believe in the trucks, 1967 was the only year it was offered. For some reason GM pulled it after that?

Re: Overdrive cable on a 67-72 Chevy truck??
I used the tranny and underdash cable from a 68 elcamino Gm used the same set up in other models You might have more chances of finding one on a chevelle site or similar and they are rare.
