Scope and Content Note

James B. Lasley's 1939 report, "Hydraulic Transmissions as Applied to Automobiles," discusses the Lysholm-Smith Converter, the Manly Drive and the Wulfel Fluid Change-Speed Gear.

The report contains 16 pages, including eight pages of type, one chart measuring rear wheel torque, one photograph of the Manly Drive, and three diagrams. The diagrams depict a "Lysholm-Smith Converter with reversing gears and cut-off unit," "Wulfel fluid change-speed gear," and "variable delivery pump."
