    BAD*** car and cool vid!
    What transmission is in it?? Sounds pretty stout gear wise..like more of a straighter cut gear in it? I know i'm hearing a gear drive, but there's more....
    You gotta be shiftin your *** off when you lace into it with those gears! :D:D
    NICE CAR!

    full on bad***! Lots of straight roads in that vid made me itch to hear you get on it just a little(lot) more.

    makes me consider a stick ****** for my Falcon g***er. More fun, but lots of time and money getting the clutch/launch just right when it counts. I'll have to re evaluate my cruise to race ratio....

    The 55 has G-Force transmission with a 3.30 1st gear. The gears are straight cut and the trans does not have any synchronizers. The rear is a 57 Olds with a spool and 5.86 Gears.

    hmmm.....i certainly appreciate you sharing this with us but have to admit after 7min i was waitin for it to do what g***ers do.

    and it was a good reminder with 5.86 gears you are gonna be doin some shiftin'.

    Sounds like you have a Pete Jackson gear drive in that Hot Rod! I kept waiting for you to hammer on it.... maybe next time.

    A great vid.

    Great sounds.

    You don't see too many hardtop sport coupe g***ers, so that is pretty cool in itself.

    Definitely gonna be a let down if you don't post another with him hammering it through at least 3-4 gears...

    I'm proud of you NOT busting off one on the street.

    BUT

    I sure would like to see it bounce up when you nail it,

    I'm sure its a hand full with 5:86 gears,love the 5 speed ..............

    I have a Doug Nash 4plus1 to install in my 55 sometime soon.
     
  22. Great video!.....The more gear noise the better!.....Good lookin' Hardtop.....I was bracing myself for a real "Hell Ride" through the gears....next time!.....Please!
