66 Valiant Wagon standard transmission conversion.....

So, this is happening!

Part are starting to come in!

Going the way of the A-833OD, mostly to help with the highway cruisin.

Looking at a transmission tomorrow and it doesn't have a shifter. It's out of a 73/74 Dart.

For shopping for a shifter, should I be shopping for one for the trans or the body? One for a 73/74 Dart OR a 66 Valiant?

And with that being said, I'm talking the mechanical part of the shifter, I'll be making a custom stick arm for it.

Shifter should be for the body, 66 Valiant. I prefer the original A body 64-65 Hurst. It has a bolt on handle. It may be perfect as is. There are some on eBay now or I have a spare I would sell. Use the later 6350 aluminum mounting plate, O/D rod set from Brewers, the stock A body reverse lever arm, 064 O/D 1-2 lever arm, and the 065 O/D lever pointing down for 3-4 position. I'll upload pictures later.
