70 340 tor red duster

Cuda Mike bought it from me a couple years ago with a
340 and a 4 Speed. However, they were not the number
matching running gear for the car. I believe the 3.23 Sure
Grip Rear is the original for the car.

Back when the car was new in the road tests of that period. the
3 sp. had a quicker 1/4 mile time that the 4 sp. or automatic and that
help the popularity of that combo to sell a number of 3 speed cars.

In the test of the 3 sp. car, Ronnie Sox was the driver of the 3 Sp. car,
as I recognized him in the pictures in the road test. Sox and Martin prepared
many of the cars for the press. That made them about as stock as the Demon
340 that my son and I drive in stock today! Every manufacturer did the same
thing back then. The 64 GTO that the magazines all tested back them was a
preproduction mule with a 421 rather 389 Tri Power. It ran 13.1 and all the guys
that bought the real cars we lucky to run in mid 14s
