way off post, but I had an old Caddy mechanic that has seen a factory 76 De'ville with a manual trans. Special order for some crazy snob! R down low may be because of the dash position.
Thanks Flashback, I will be watching your progress.
pishta that is an odd one for sure... I have a buddy that has a 69 Ford LTD that was special ordered with 3 on the tree and manual brakes/steering, LTDs are usually loaded with options, not this one though, people order some strange stuff...
