I started driving in the late 50's so I grew up with the muscle cars of the 60's and 70's. I never had a true muscle car but did have some big V8's. Back then you either had a stick or a 3 speed auto...
Yeah, OLDSMOBILE! That's the one I couldn't remember! I also forgot about Lincoln using the Hydramatic. It is difficult to imagine, FoMoCo buying a GM tranny for their "top-of-the-line" brand!
