Does anyone have a pic of the underside of their 3rd gen? There are 2 triangle looking kinda blocks of steel, maybe a tranny mount? Not a clue where they go.

Also

There has to be some sort of linkage that goes from the shift handle to the shifter on the trans. Any pics of what it might look light?

Thanks in advance guys!!!!  :cheers:

Slapstick I assume?  In this photo the shifter is actually lying on its side.

Yes slapstick, that looks to be on the other end of what I need. From that pic it looks like there is a linkage from the handle to that bracket, then the bracket goes down right? If it goes down from there then I think it is a rod type thing with a braket on the end of it that goes torward the tranny shifter part.

Well boys my project has to stop for a bit. We are moving out into the country. Pretty excited because until then the charger will be moved to my uncles house. I'm also excited because I can start working again now that im graduated and save my duckies for that bulge hood and paint. I will let you guys know when everything is going down.


Oh and might I add that I will have my OWN garage that isn't by my dad's 69 notchback 440 cuda!!!!!!!

That and I got my own toolbox for graduation!!!!!!! Very satisfied with how things are going!!!!!  :coolgleamA: :icon_smile_cool: ;) :icon_smile_wink: :D

Cody!!!!
