can you use the manual shipping weight of a car for a gt car, even if the car will be an automatic?

The rules say to use the weight of the body used with the heaviest gasoline engine and appropriate transmission available. For my Mustang to run GT I would need to find the shipping weight of the heaviest 68 Mustang coupe with a gas engine and auto trans, then use that along with the HP rating of whatever engine I chose to use. If a body was only available as a stick I don't think you can run it with an auto.

Someone correct me.

It's confusing.
