I grew up with a stick in my rods. Have owned my 57 chev 33 years
now, and have had 5 different motors in it. It always either had a
4 spd manual or 5 spd..I went to an automatic in the late 90ies, and
I guess it was ok, but I sold the automatic and went back to the
5 spd manual...Just love shifting those gears..
