The story is in the archives of TLCA's Toyota Trails. It is also on the Collected Stories link on my website. Unfortunately I am tech limited with providing links from my iPhone.

Cool. I will check it out!
I have two 45's with the 3 on the tree(one even has a 2F) and LOVE them, also more than a few with 4 speeds.....love them as well(surely easier to drive) A 40 was the 1st time I had ever driven a 3 on the tree.
there is something magical to me about driving a 3 on the tree in a decent old cruiser....it just puts you back in another time when things were not as rushed or hurried, in the 45LV there is not even a heater or seatbelts.....so its like a real trip back in time. You also typically have a bench seat(and nothing on the floor, unless a PTO) in a 3 on the tree and it often makes for nice times with a ladies(or your dog). My 82 with a Tuffy console does not lend itself to the same experience.....
now a 4 on the tree..........I'd be in heaven. (Stout's had those)
