Mid to early 50's 60'sWhen were those around?
Could you please explain how this was shifted?
Might be a little more worried about the wasp nests than the shifting.
Not sure of the tall shifter but recall my uncle, who passed away many years back, made a comment before I was old enough to really understand what he was saying. He said the worst thing they ever did was to come out with the column shifters in cars. Said the floor shifts were more fun when taking lady friends out for a ride.
Kids today have no reason to shift down even if they have a straight stick
That is a really cool old Mack.
