    i wanted to use my column shift column and convert to a floor shift column, what parts do i need to do this and has any one seen tech info how and what parts are needed to do this, or is it easier to buy one from the parts place, bad thing there not cheap, i have a 72 lark and got my hands on a console and floor shifter from a member, thanks for any help dale

    Straight non tilt columns are pretty cheap to come by, but other than the column, shifter and console, you'll need the cable, cable clips,console brackets,transmission arm,..that's about it

    i got the console , shifter , cable, i can get the transmision bracket and clips and washers from parts place, use my current column shift parts to go to the lever on the column to operate the neutral and back up lights but i was under the impression from the console seller i would need to change the bottom of my column and the top cover on the column to get rid of the selector mount, so thats what im trying to figure out, or am i over thinking this?
