Re: 1st post on this site! Intro and a question!

I agree that patina is fabulous. As posted before, the sm420 or sm465 transmission will not provide true 4 speed functionality. Just a three speed with the very rare benefit of a low gear for starting off when pulling a load. One of the best mods for the money is putting in a Borg T-5 5 speed. Lots of these in junk yards and tons of previous install experience by board members here and at 'stovebolt.' Good Luck and welcome to the addiction!
