63 Parisienne sport coupe (The Big GTO), black, maroon interior, 409 4 speed; former owner of a 59 El Camino, 63 Corvette SWC, 62 Chev Bel Air SC. 1963- Pontiac top selling car in Canada
Mahone Bay, NS Still not old enough to need an automatic
Thanks, that is a very tight shifting T10. T10s were gone for the Muncie by 64, this video is of a 64 but in a Buick I guess it could still be a T10.
Thanks for the video, I wondered how that shifter worked in the small opening in the console.

/\/\ My understanding is that divisions got equipment depending on two factors:
1) if another division had exclusivity
2) availability based on using up parts
I am pretty sure that the T-10 was used in every division except for Chevrolet in 1963 (first year of Muncie four speed);
I believe that the Muncie four speed was quickly made to be "the" four speed shortly after 1963, but I do not have access to when each division used the Muncie in their models.
I am frankly surprised that this car is suggested(?) to have a T-10, I too would have thought that the Muncie would have been used - but since the Wildcat was a larger car, maybe the longer tailhousing used for full sized cars wasn't yet allotted to the Buick division??
