In the process of planning out electric power steering conversion on my '55 with 4L80 and will be moving the column shifter to the floor. I don't want to install a console as I want to retain my bench seat to maintain the sleeper look. Has anyone been able to source a floor shifter at the local u-pick and adapt it to this purpose? What make and year of car should I be looking into?
I see some members have gone with the Cadillac DTS shifter but the ones I have seen were installed in a console. Those seem to have a big footprint and may be hard to hide with just a boot. I like the foot print of the B&M Quicksilver but am just not ready to part with more than $500 for the real deal when floor shifter at my local u-pick is less than $20.
