Re: Easier to drive: shift on the floor or column?

When I was really little, Dad bought one of those generic floor shifter kits for our '47 Clipper. I have no idea why he did that.

I had occasion to drive a '63 Mercedes 220 with a FOUR-speed shifter on the column. Interesting!

Personally, although I know why manufacturers went w/column shifters, I prefer 'em on the floor.
