Re: 3 speed column shifter stuck when it's cold outside
There's a long tube that slides up and down the steering column to shift the levers. In the factory it was lathered up with grease which after 40 years dries to a thick sticky substance.
In some cases you can get by spraying the h3ll out of with WD40 or other lubricant/solvent but be sure and protect the floor board and garage floor. In my case I had to take the column off and remove all the old stuff and relube. I had to basically clean out chunks of waxy hard grease.
