Thanks Robert For the cool cutaway pictures.

 

The 2nd picture is the later AMP, the first one has the aluminum wash tub, the one we have at the museum has the earlier design where the top of the transmission was the wash tub, so much for ever replacing a transmission.

 

The original AMP did not give much thought to service, but that was true of other makes as well, I am sure the original bolt-down WP-KMs were no joy to work on either.
