'70 Monte Carlo, 350/250hp with 3-speed stick

[Nasblu]

They had 3 spd manual on column in 1971 and 1972 Monte Carlos as well. 1971 was the rarest at only 280 cars and production ramped back up in 1972 with 342 cars. I have seen 2 over the years (one 1970 in the junk yard upside down) I snagged the pedal assembly out of that car. 3 speeds were rarer than the quite rare 4 speed Monte Carlos offered in 1970 and 1971, no 4 speed Montes offered in 1972. No 4 speeds offered in SS Monte Carlos in 70 and 71 which seems odd considering you could get a 402 with a 4spd but not the LS5.
