Its an urban legend......someone changed out the column shift, and replaced it with a floor shift, and thinks that calling it a "Rare factory" option will command a higher price

No such animal ever existed, except in the add poster's mind.
If you have a "factory" floor shift, you have a 4 speed manual tranny attached to it.

He is FOS. I am always getting in arguments with idiots about this type of stuff. They think they can go say it's factory after 40 years later and they don't know what they are talking about. And that whole crap about only 900 being produced...
