1965 Barracuda Auto to Manual? Advice/Thoughts?

My advice is to convert to 4 speed but keep all the automatic stuff in case you want to convert back to automatic.

I converted my Dart to 4 speed and then back to automatic for the HOTROD Power Tour where there are hours of stop and go driving.

It's an easy swap back to automatic. Clutch pedal is tucked under the carpet and a blank over the shifter opening.
