1970 280 S Gearbox
Discussion
My 1970 280 S has a manual 4 speed column shift mounted on the steering wheel.
If you go round a tight corner and change gear at the same time - the gear linkage comes unattached! The connector rod from the gear selector is joined to the rod from the gearbox just underneath the steering column and its one of these ball joints which keeps coming free. Then it gets stuck in whatever gear you were in!
