67 Impala SS396 3 speed on the column?

[camarojoe]

I always wondered if it would be possible to order a console without ordering a floor shift. Was this exclusive to the 66 Caprice/Impala 3 speed stick, or could it be had with an automatic column shift too? Were gauges mandatory, or would it have also been possible to order a console with absolutely nothing on it but 2 blank plates? (that would be even weirder looking!) Any other Chevy's offered this way, or was it a 1966 only thing? Pretty sure the 69 Camaro ordering info specifically states that a console is only available with a floor shift, but I'm just going by memory on that... I do know a 3 speed manual column shift was standard.
