The 4-speed '69 Dart Swinger that I bought has turned into a a swap meet nightmare. I am certain that the shifter, arms and rods are all a mismatch. I know that the chrome lever is wrong, or the basic shifter. How do I know what is correct for the bottom? Does anyone have a picture of of the correct orientation of everything?
Mega and year one have bottom parts, but when comparing, they don't look the same . Don't know which is correct.

You should post a pic of what you have so the gurus can see what going on
I agree, I am having trouble just trying to even get a question into motion, yet alone a picture. Not good with computers, just have my phone. Oh well.

Thank you for your replies. I am only scratching the surface of issues.

If it's shifter problems you having, make sure that you have all the shifter levers lined up underneath the shifter. Take them loose from the side cover levers...then put a little skinny bolt through it the hole in the center 'of shifter levers' that lines them all up to hold them there then take loose your rods if need be and screw them out or end to get the proper length you need to be lined up at the shifters and have everything out of gear and in neutral

Tried that, not enough travel on 3/4 rod, then reverse didn't want ro engage all the way. Actually have a Hurst alignment pin from back then!
