Marion was 67 and had half a lung in 1974.
His ticker was also working with a pig valve. Having said that, he could probably still kick my azz any day of the week. I understand why he drove a slushbox and I understand why Chevy offers them in Corvettes - old knees and clutches don't mix.

i liked john wayne, one of my movie heroes.
but i couldn't care less what he drove or what transmission it had, i drive with the tranny i like and that means it has to be a manual.
vettedriven, if you dream of having an automatic some day, have at it......until then i suggest you sit in your mother's lap with your cookies and milk

Now look here "pilgrim!" John Wayne in the old Corps was a can opener. Can openers in the crotch were worth their weight in gold if you were hungry and had nothing to eat but a can of ham and motherf------s. Some of you might know what I'm talking about. John Wayne, he was a legend, while still alive.
