  • I wish you guys drive these cars, you drive like your going to church, lets see some full throttle shifting, these Ole Ford are runners.

    I had a 59 Studebaker lark, V8, 3 on the tree with overdrive, it would go 80 mph in low gear overdrive.

    A friend of mine had a new 60 Falcon, 6, 3 on the tree ,my Stud would go faster in low gear then that Falcon would go in high.

  • @ticker511 Thanks for the note! O-V-E-R-D-R--I-V-E!!

  • the gear box is 3 on the tree?

  • @poopsienoremac Yes; plus you can engage overdrive in each gear (except reverse).

  • @4spdBernie Can you please explain to me what this Three-On-The-Tree is? Thank you.

  • @christich99 Shift lever in on the steering column instead of on the floor.

  • @4spdBernie I prefer shifters on the Column instead of on the Floor. They just don't make 'em like they used to.

  • I had a 65 falcon six 2 door coupe (Aussie body) It was virtually a scaled down copy of the 64 galaxie coupe. Pull one up and check it out .The US body was slightly different.

    I'm green with envy cause we missed out on most of these US beauties.
