1930's film on car gearbox - Oxford Jack - 18-03-2021

I came across this film from America, which I found very simple to understand, it might be of use to others with, like me, little understanding of the internal mysteries of a gearbox, synchro and ratios. You will have to excuse the pronunciation of a lever, be warned!
