'50 Ford Overdrive

I'd like to replace the 3 speed trans in a '50 Ford sedan with either an original type 3 speed OD or a 5 speed. Is there anyone in CT or surrounding area that you guys would recommend? Thanks, Pete

'51 Fordomatic Trans.

What is the correct transmission fluid for a '51 Fordomatic? Original manual states "Type A"; is that still correct for today's fluid?
Thanks, Pete, Milford, CT
