To me, a four speed is worth at least an additional 10%. Just my two cents worth Stevie.

I would pay more for the four speed. Just because I can't get enough of jammin through the gears. :D

4 speed cars generally pull more money. How much depends on the buyer.

NADA figures it adds about 2%.

NADA misses the mark on most classics. Maybe a guideline but I wouldn't even look at it.

I have a 65 SS convertible (slip-n-slide powerglide) and a 65 SS hardtop (4 speed). The convertible is a frame off and just sits in the garage. The 4 speed car is driven daily. According to NADA the value of both are comparable.
Thanx:confused:
