Overdrive Shifter Bracket

When I got the overdrive and shifter in all looked good until I installed the brake and clutch pedals and linkage. Then I realized the model A bracket that comes with the overdrive won't work on a B model transmission. So after fabricating a bracket to hold the shifter, the shift arm was in the way of the brake rod.  So after scratching my head a little I machined off part of the bracket and reversed the arm and had just enough clearance to work. So I installed the brake cross shaft and got ready to hook up the brake rods to each wheel.  I also put in the battery box to see if I still had clearance. It's tight but it works!
