I have a 1936 standard that i recently had the transmission rebuilt. The mechanic that rebuilt it told me the transmision was missing a piece but if i double clutched it should be alright. The transmision was s not shifting correctly giving a grinding noise and doesnt slip into gears with grinding eventully i can find the gear . The mechanic that rebuilt it died and i dont remeber the part he told me i was missing. Does anyone have an idea what part i can be missing . And also is it the same transmission a 1937 uses. I hace a 207 1936 chevy standard

Your 1936 Chevy Standard uses the same transmission as my 1935 Standard. If everything is working as it was designed to do, you should have no trouble shifting if you double clutch. The trans is not synchronized so I can't imagine what part could have been omitted that would have made it shift better.

I might have an extra transmission if you can't find your problem.
