i want a console shifter

I went from a column to console in my '73.
Not sure where all the 'big money' drama and 'crying' comes from above but about the only things that needed some McGyvering for me was to fab the console/shifter-brackets, and make sure the shifter linkage cleared the overdrive-unit of the A518.





Oh, for what it matters, I will be converting my '65 Chrysler 300 aswell to console shifter, just because it simply looks better :)
