In the original article, We learn how one man got the surpise opf a lifetime when his wife planned an elaborate ruse to give him a 1968 Chevelle.  Steve Mehmert’s heart skipped a beat as he walked past what was his dream car, and after a few drives on the Interstes, it was obvious that the Chevelle could use another gear. That’s where Silver Sport Transmissions comes into the picture.

“With the four-speed in the car, it was fun around town. But get it out on the highway, and the enjoyment waned,” Steve said. That meant a new overdrive transmission was on the list of necessary improvements. He decided to install a manual six-speed, because of the double overdrive, ideal gearing, and excellent reputation as a quality transmission.
