Hi, the shifter and all related pieces except the floor pan brackets are missing from my car. Will any slap stick set up from a 70-74 B or E-body work, bolt in and look stock ? :beer: THANKS, Ron

and late 74, they went back to the round woodgrain knob, that looks like the pre 71 piece, but it's not

So which one is correct for my 71' roadrunner T handle or round wood knob ? THANKS, Ron :beer:

the T-handle...the pre 71s used the wood round knob, then the T-handle in 71 through almost all of 74...not many 74s had the round knob i don't think :beer:

Column shifted automatics were pretty common in bench seat cars. The slap stik was not available with a bench, as it required the console.

you could put in an aftermarket auto shifter, pry a lil hard to get to while on a bench seat....best option would be to use a cheap JCWhitney (Hurst and Lokar make them too, i think) - a tall handled shifter, which would look more like a manual trans bench seat...neither will look stock or fool anyone
