If this is a beater, does it have to be manual? Your choices really open up if you decide that a daily driving automatic is the way to go. Take it from us old guys, the daily commute with a stick gets old real fast.
Think about what the car is really meant to do, then decide what you really need. If you have the F-body as a second car, then just get a true commuter for the beater.
