Do we know if he is still building them? Or has he given up on the project.

Sorry my bad I didn't know. So do the people that built them still make them or did they give up?

Sorry my bad I didn't know. So do the people that built them still make them or did they give up? No worries... just some info passed along. AFAIK they are still making them.... I haven't been in contact with Seth Garrett since I sold mine which has been a couple years ago. John Huff seems to be getting them, so they have to be making them.

The last time I talked to John Huff he said the owners of the company were aging and the transmissions were coming slowly. He is trying to buy the company, from what I understand.

I did read the Passon 5-speed story in the latest Mopar Collector's Guide... I don't have any further comments but will say the following: Over the last 10 years I have bought (3) A-833s from Passon, and Jamie was very professional and delivered a high quality product. And in the future if I need any A-833 or related drive-train parts I will not hesitate to buy from Passon. Also note I have bought some things from Wayne/Dan @ Brewers, as both Passon and Brewers are in my personal opinion class-operations supporting our legacy Mopars..
Just my $0.02...
