Now before I rebuild, I need to locate the parts, but having troubles with what series it is, the # on the tag states 10-14-1000-00 serial # 1425 ratio# F20, most charts only start at 10-17 which is 71-72 series.
A 10-14 Velvet Drive is a CR2 based on a 72 series. It is a drop center transmission and was made in either 1.58, 2.03, 2.47 or 2.93 gear ratios. The number at the very end tells you what gear ratio and whether it is Right Hand or Left Hand rotation.

There is no such thing as an F20, but there is an E2.0 which is a 2.03 ratio LH drive (opposite rotation from engine).

Parts that are specific to this model are no longer made, but there are plenty of good used parts available at Velvet Drive rebuilders.

If you PM me I can send you a copy of the service manual.
