Hi there,
I am looking for these parts for my Jetaway in my 59 Ninety Eight coupe. (Circled in red).
I am in Australia so know the postage is going to be up there.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Here is three well known sources. Don't expect to find exactly what you need on the web sites. Reach out to them and allow time for them to dig up what you need. Good luck ~

I have now contacted
Fatsco who were great to chat to and are looking for things.
In the mean time I may have a transmission locally and is attached to to 1956 324 at this stage not sure if it’s a Hydra-matic or Jetaway.
If it is a Hydra-matic would its front unit coupling and overrun clutch and front pump unit be interchangeable? These are the main issues need replacing in my Jetaway.
No interchange between dual range H-M and Jetaway. I'm not sure about the 56 Jetaway and interchange with your 59 but I recall 56 and early 57 are a similar assembly, then late 57 and 58. 59 and 60 are close I'm sure and are excellent transmissions.
Yes in a world of poor service Fatsco is great to deal with. I'm sure the others as well, I've also used NWT but not David Edwards, so far.
How did this trans get busted up this way? Three buddies a case of beer and some roll backs? Best of luck~

Great info thanks I appreciate it.
Transmission was faultless…up until I had it at a body shop last year. Maybe a coincidence I don’t know but for 3 months sitting outside their shop in the middle of the rainy season probably did not help. After I got it back I reversed out the driveway put it into drive as soon as I moved off there was a noisy tinkling crash that sounded like a few pieces of steel being dragged behind the car. Since then only 1st and 2nd no 3rd or 4th. Got to a point a lot of clunking and whirring when moving off until it would not go into any gear at all. My transmission man said there was surface rust on parts in there that when they moved was like sandpaper eventually everything locked up. As well as metal and seals in the pan metal in the valve bodies. He’s cleaned all that now ready for replacement parts.
To expand on what Coldwar has said, I checked the parts book .
It looks as though the front pumps will interchange if the unit is a late 1956. ( serial number O56-59665 and up)
Alas, most of the front torus parts are different. Including the drive torus, the driven torus, and the torus cover.
I'll leave you some pages from the parts book to mull over.
