My 75 Dart Sport is currently a column shift car.
I have the center console and shifter assembly (as well as steering column) to convert to a floorshift car.
My problem is that I have a 518 OD in my car now, and it does NOT have the provisions for the floor shift linkages like a 727 because it was only ever installed in trucks. I REALLY want to go to a floor shifter.
I figure I have two options:
Aftermarket shifter tower, and then build a nice center console around it. I have a friend who does fiberglass interior parts, so I thought it would be a good way to still get a console.
My other option that I would like to pursue first is to see if I can use the factory shifter/console, and instead of using linkages use a cable system.
Does anyone know if there is a cable conversion available, or what would need to be done to make something like this work??
