Hey Dru, I'm keeping the three speed. Partly because I have it and partly because I think it has been rebuilt. It's a later model transmission. It's painted black and shifts very good so I'll keep it for the novelty of having a "three-on-the-tree". The grandkids saw the shifter and asked what it was. Surprising how many people have never seen a column shifter before. I have rebuilt all of the shift linkage and painted it so I'm kind of committed for now.
