I had a few years ago, a '72 Duster slant and 3 on the floor, pretty common for that I bet/

I love racing 3 on the trees... especially 6 cylinder cars. I had a '66 Buick Special with a V6 3 on the tree. I could shift it so fast it about sounded like an automatic, scratching a nice patch hitting 2nd... lol

My current three on the tree has a whole 103 hp (or, it might have when new, lol)
Quick shifting is not gonna make a bunch of difference..... but it's still quicker than my three at the knee. .(no synchro's, either direction).

I never could power shift a tree on the three!
Yes and red cars were more expensive. Remember that nonsense?

Never tried. What would be the point? 19.9 seconds to 60 mph, instead of 20? Lol.I never could power shift a tree on the three!
You gotta choke all the way up to the column.I never could power shift a tree on the three!
Ridiculous. But that's how they did it.
Yes they are and the most expensive color to paint
Which is why fire engines are red. Back in the day, all fire brigades were volunteer, and they were very competitive. They began painting their stuff red as a show of pride and to demonstrate that their brigade could afford the best of the best.
