Back in the late 60's UPS had a moratorium on buying anymore Chevy trucks. Seems they ordered 200 chassis from Chevy, at that time They built their own truck bodies. Built out the 200 frames under package cars and put them out. Didn't get but about 5,000 miles on them and transmissions started to fail. When they went to Chevy to get the transmission parts they were informed by the parts guy that wasn't a GM transmission or one they ever used. Come to find out it was an experimental transmission, they made about 250 of them after testing 50 of them they figured out they were garbage, about that time a purchase order comes in for 200 chassis can you guess what happened?
