HOWARD is being sold with the original tail-shift transaxle (rebuilt by THOMAS) and all of the associated tail-shifter components, so I have this side-shift conversion kit that was earmarked for installation up for sale.
Comes with all the components needed to convert an early ('70~early '72) tail-shift car into a side-shift car (except for the outboard engine bar-to-body hardware), and for all the right reasons - WAY BETTER SHIFTING ...
Engine mount bar with good rubber engine-to-bar mounts
Shift lever assembly & new boot (no knob)
Front (tunnel) shift rod (could stand to be blasted & painted), and (2) conversion firewall bushings (your choice to install)
Rear shift rod with bronze bushings and rear shift cup
Shift console cover and strap (both new)
I think I may have a new firewall coupler bellows (but haven't found it yet) ... will include if found
$350. for all of it - Local pick-up only, So Cal, LAX South Bay

I also have (2) (never installed) THOMAS rebuilt side-shift transaxles, but they're at my place in Arizona.
I'll see if I can have my neighbor snap some pix and then I'll be able to list them for sale
Probably local pick-up in the greater Phoenix area
