There is still the usual H shifting pattern but it is not foward for 1st
and 
back for 2nd instead it is down for 1st and up for 2nd. Now that is as
clear 
as mud.

A Newbie question, but I have to ask:

The FC primer reads: "the manual shifter on the early FCs is a little 
unusual" and that "it is mounted on a vertical panel under the front bench 
seat and is operated with a different motion (up-down instead of 
forward-back) than is common".

What does this mean?  Can someone describe the shift pattern and shift
lever 
motion?

Thanks,

- Steve
