My awesome classic car driving experience with two 50 year old cars!!

[Chris Burns]

This past week at the Amelia Island Concours car show I got to drive a 65 Mustang and a 69 Camaro both with manual transmissions.

It was part of the Hagerty Classic Car driving experience to teach people how to drive a manual transmission.

The Mustang was a 3spd manual with a 260V8. It did fine, but you could tell it was a drivers ed car that had been beat on by younger drivers.

The Camaro did much better. This was one a 396 SS with a 4spd. It had been better taken care of I think. Better shifting and smoother.

Hagerty also had a 59 Corvette and a 1960 Cadillac to drive.

They said they will do it next year. It's free and I highly recommend!!
