Default Re: WTB 1968 Chevelle 3-speed floor shifter

no i dont think its a floor shifted stick shift cross member...it has hurts linkaage and shifter..

you see the bracket the trans mount is on? theres another on the other side for a stick, one bracket faces forward,,the other faces rear... it doesnt mean your stuck..it means the factory shifter pic'd above has no where to mount

so, if you want to use a stock shifter you need a cross member also

its been re-poped i think...but maybe not..because you also have the prob with the elcamino has a boxed frame like a convertible...a stick shift for the floor, convertible cross member is a real valuable piece,,68-72 convert, sprint and elcamino work..

so, what you need is the bracketry to put a shifter on a transmission that has nothing there to mount it to...and its really a joke whats out there...you have no bosses on the tail shaft for a floor shifter..

i have a set i took off a 70 cutlass..let me see if i can find it..it will give you an idea what you need..i also have a crossmember thats been hacked on but you can see the extra bracket..or, just do a search on ebay..it will pop right up..
