Well, there’s hope for you yet. When KCH 95N, the only other restored NGC, left the factory it had the RT direct-top 9-sp 'box, but was fitted with an RTO9513 by CDB in Brussels before being delivered brand new to its first owner. It is interesting, if not coincidental, to note that both these restoration NGCs served their lives hauling timber out of the woods. RobertI’m guessing maybe a mixture of off road mixed with motorway running in that example at least ?.It would have been interesting to have seen some road test results in the Ardennes and on the flat given that spec.
It is probable that all the (few) 13-sp equipped NGCs were overdrive top boxes. The standard kit was 9-sp direct top, but a few 9-sps were supplied (presumably on demand) with overdrive top. Robert
