The name “slushbox” doesn’t apply to most automatics these days, but I still use that too. If it’s not a proper manual, it’s a slushbox to me, and some slushies have flappy paddles on them.

1982 AMC Eagle Kammback with the 4.2L I6 and 5-speed manual. A tough little 4x4 Gremlin. Yes please!

This please, but in rally spec.

I actually put my money where my mouth is, as I have owned a 1984 Rabbit GTI for 4 years.
