***Column shift delete***

The car in question already has a B&M floor shifter installed. I was thinking just remove the shift lever and cut the indicator and whats left if the shifter hole off then Tig weld in patch panels sand those in good and then just paint it. Of course if I did something like that the goal would be to make look like it never happened. :D

This will need to be on the cheap if possible, I don't really want to install a whole column.
