They have been tumbled and cleaned. It's amazing what clean metal looks like, huh?

The 3rd and 4th gears of this transmission have been face plated. This is one of my "Saturday Night Special" Toploaders, where 1st/2nd are still synchronized for easier street driving, but 3rd/4th are all business. Instead of dozens of synchronizer engagement teeth, you have 7. No chance of a missed gear going from 2nd to 3rd or 3rd to 4th....just tap the clutch, shove, and you're done.
