Re: 1946 Ford Transmission
The original Hurst 3-speed shifter mechanism was designed after more than one young hot rodder designed there own floor shift mechanism to operate the side shift transmissions. I remember seeing these in an old early 50s Hot Rod magazine. It seems like there was an article in one of the Popular Mechanics magazines too. The three speed types evolved into the 4-speed shifter after they went into production.
