904 shifter in the 48...need ideas

[JR]

So I guess the 48 will need to shift in order to do that whole driving thing that the kids are doing now days. I don't want to spend the 200 bucks for a lokar shifter so give me some ideas. The interior consists of the stock bench seat, a custom built column, and a 59 Impala dash that has been narrowed so we will need a floor mounted shifter that goes with the interior.
I heard that there were some cable operated auto floor shifters in some of the 60's mopars, is that true or were they all the linkage type? Anyone have an old universal cable laying around?

How about a pushbutton out of a 61-64 dodge truck? Look at the little pod next to the steering wheel. Imperial Services has the parts to make it work with a non-pushbutton trans.

Hey JR, I have that Quicksilver I got with the Scamp and the A100 shifter - I'm not going to use them so let me know if you can. May have a cable too.

I used the b&m shifter from Summit, in my 47 Desoto with a 904, works fine.
