Bench seat car, at least that is what was in it, 30 years after it was born. Floor shift 4 speed no console, no signs of the 4 speed hump being non-factory. This car has minimal history, but to me doesn't make any less cool.
In the vast majority of the car world for decades the 3 speed manual was the "standard", what you got if you didn't pay for anything extra, the bare minimum. The 4 speed has always been an extra cost option and usually an expensive option.
The 1968 roadrunner and 69 swinger 340 were two of very rare occourances that the 4 speed was the standard equipment. If you didn't pay any extra or specify, it got a new process 4 speed. The automatic with column shift (Because they all had benches) was extra cost.
