this isn't what the road tests found during the muscle car era--Mopars seemed to run about the same regardless of transmission...


The four speed is "cooler" to own.  the automatic is a LOT easier to live with at places like the 'nats where you're often on a two-lane parking lot!

Ronnie Sox won a bunch with a manual, true enough, but in spite of what we all think there are very very very few of us that can shift like he could.

didn't know he had it for sale...that's Rich Fiore out of Long Island.  He's had the car for about the last 10 years.  It is a nice, solid, clean Hemi car, and I really don't think the change to 4 speed is a huge sin...as far as I remember the original auto trans was long gone anyway.

He also has a yellow 440/4 speed car.  I haven't talked to him in a while so I don't know if he's fishing or wanting to move on.  

he actually has 3 birds right now, ive been in all of them except the blue one he got 2 years ago. they are all nice cars

That's the non running car and I thought it belonged to his brother Ron...?

id just love to drive one of these birds just once!!!

[FJ5WING]

Ive never had the opportunity to get my car on one of the tracks but I have had my car over 120 and didnt notice any difference in the ride versus any other car around the same speed. To me driving the Bird is no different than any other B-body. Just have to be more careful pulling up in the garage, the nose isnt a long as you think so Ive found that I was usually too cautious.
