4 speed

Can someone tell me what type of tranny was standard around '79-'80? I remember they were called a 4 speed but 1st was like a "granny" gear.

Re: 4 speed

SM465 was the std. 4 spd manual tranny available for all 73-87 sqaure bodies. I almost thought about putting one in the truck before I went with the Muncie M20 car tranny. Should be easy to find if you are looking for less than $ 200
