    Anyone know of a good aftermarket floor shift kit with a long stick to replace the exsisting collum {sic} shift on my 1963 230ci.Chevy truck? Is it a good idea (i like floor shifts) or is it gonna be more trouble then rebuilding the collum {sic} shift {which i never liked).
    Keeping the truck original is not a concern of mine,and cutting a hole in the floor pan don't confront me none,as long as the cab does'nt try to take flight above 65mph!Have any of you guys made this switch,or is this sacralege?{sic}(against the Chevy Gods and common sense)
    Thanx in advance from the new meat on the block,

    Hey Boondawg,

    Did this a few years ago with a 51 that I owned and loved it. I got a shifter from Pep Boys that had an extra long shift handle that was designed for trucks. I noticed one just like it a few weeks ago when I happened to be in the store for something. Cost around 60 bucks with all the instructions and parts you need.

    Mike
