Is it a 4 or 5 speed tranny?

Hey guys, I have a 75 280z that I am restoring. I know the car is a manual because of the clutch, but I do not know if it is a 4 or 5 speed. The previous owner drained all fluids and such before I bought it, so I can't just shift through all of the gears to find out, plus there is no shift knob.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Let me make sure I fully understand. There is a shifter, but no knob to tell you what the shift pattern is? And there isn't any oil in the transmission? Is that the problem?

If that is the case just push in the clutch and shift through all the gears. You won't damage anything at all unless you try to drive it with no oil.

yeah, all of the fluids are emptied.

thanks for the help. ^_^ if it is a 4 speed, does the 5 speed bolt on or will i have to modify anything?
