More bs from GM lovers

This popped up on my phone. I like cars so I read it.

https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2018/08/22/the-5-best-column-shift-muscle-cars

The only two on here I would even own are the 442 and the Impala SS 427

And to my knowledge 4-4-2 stands for:
4- bolt main, 4 barrel , dual exhaust.
Not how these blithering fucktards have it.

Not a single Mopar! Come on.
Why not a '67 R/T Coronet or a nicely optioned '68 RoadRunner?

I've seen lots of nice Column shifted cars listed on this forum that were better cars than the 5 that these idiots listed as The Best.

Actually, it is four speed, four barrel, dual exhaust......

 

[BIGSHCLUNK]

Agreed!

The purpose of the article is to point out how odd it is to have the rest of the performance package but yet have a three on the tree.

Neither a 67 R/T or 68 RR was available with three on the tree.

I though it was 4 barrel , 4 speed , dual exhaust

I'll be dsmned it does.

Ok I interpreted it as column shifted, not specific 3 on tree.

Still weren't there any Mopars that came with 3 on tree as a base option?

 

[fratzog lover]

Just the floor.

Just trucks as far as I know

 

[YY1]

Does a 57 Fury count?

pretty sure the dual quad 318 ploy came as a column 3 speed manual

how about a 55 300?


all manual transmission, small block B body cars were column shifted 3 speeds until 1971

challenge- prove it wrong.


was there documentation for the 3 on the tree 4-4-2?

 

[skicker]

I had a 63 Dodge I parted out a while back that was three on the tree...

I stand corrected

 

[Glenwood]

Odd, I knew several guys with original 442s and both were automatics?

Not on the performance models (RR, Superbee, ) but was available on base models (belvedere,coronet).

 

[Frank Mopar]

Plenty of the six cylinders mopars had three on the tree

442 was 4-speed, four barrel and dual exhaust and I think they rearranged it to be 400, (which the early ones did have)four barrel and dual exhaust. Depends on who you ask.

[chargervert]

I had a 70 Charger with a three speed on the column, so they were available.

 

[BeeKool]

I remember an article in HCC a few years back. The car was a 63 Impala SS.... 250 straight 6 w a 3 on the tree. Very rare
You could order them that way but I don't know why anybody would.

only c bodies that i'm aware of and not very many
Chargers also but only up to a 383 I believe
my buddy back in the day had a brown 70 fury 383 with 3 on the tree
came with the 2 383 emblem call outs on the bulge hood.
the thing was a tank but it would hold its own once you got it going.
a nice highway car

 

[Cranky]

Base engine for a road runner was the 383 and none of them came with a 3 speed on the column. You could get a Charger with anything from a /6 on up.....
