<VV> 3-speed reminder

[jwcorvair at aol.com]

Call me odd (most people do), but I've always preferred the 66 and on 3-speed for a daily commuter driver. I'm not sure why. Certainly the 4-speed is better for more spirited driving with its better ratios. Does anyone have a convertible with a 3-speed? It seems that everyone replaces a 3-speed as soon as they can. I'm just wondering how many cars still have their 3-speeds.

A 3-speed was the "normal" (base) transmission on ALL Vairs -- even for Spyders
and Corsas, a 4-speed was an extra cost option.

3 speed is "normal" for a 500.
Positraction is "semi normal" for wintery areas. Looks like a nice
car.
