Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside RESTO-GO!

Rian, whenever I hear the term "shift kit", it makes me smile. When I was in high school (OMG 35 years ago!) I drove a 1970 Chevy Belair with the usual... 350, mild cam, headers, etc... and TH350 with a shift kit. Every day, I'd have a full car load of my GF and buddies with me coming or going...

I didn't tell anyone that I was installing a shift kit, so on the Monday morning after picking up my bro's... I wound 'er out in first, then hand-shifted (on the column) into 2nd. When it bang shifted in to 2nd it was so funny to see all six heads snap back. My passengers were surprised, then everyone howled with laughter. Yeah, kinda dumb... but it doesn't take much to amuse me!
