There were floor shift conversion kits sold in the old days, the Hurst Mystery shifter was one, I don't know if you can still buy them new or not. So to begin your search, you have to know if your transmission is the fully synchronized one, or if it is only synchronized in second and third gear. If you have the fully synchronized transmission, just post that here and I will find the designation for that transmission, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 2,254 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 2,254 | Thank you. I will look for any numbers on the transmission and post my findings.

Where can I go to get information?
Thanks

Thanks
