There were quite a few 5 speeds from the mid 70s on.

I crewed on my friends F/G Corvette for a while and must have helped pull the trans a half a dozen times. It was a hemi 4 speed sitting on my chest. I believe this this was either 75 or 76. I know they updated the car after a flywheel explosion and crash and probably went to the 5 speed at that time.

Any pictures or stories of modified before they dumped it I believe in 1982. The protest must have been something to see.

It was dumped at the end of the '81 season. Here's a link to some of my Modified pics.

My brother and I bought this Butch Leal B/MP Duster last week.
It will be going through a complete ground-up restoration back to 1975. Lot's of things to change but it's all there and in great shape. We have established contact with Gary Hansen who initialy constructed the car at Ron Butler's and he will advise us on important original details. ![]() ![]()

Of course, you are correct Bob. We absolutely had 5 speeds in the '70s.
