    Yes, they are the same... Also the same as 1968-1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass and 442....

    The floor shift hump plate is not an easy piece to get if you do need one. I have a couple extras (3 incl. one I need for my car) but all 3 are in some need of repair. I'd probably sell one if you need it. Msg. me if so & I'll get some pics.

    this is the closest... The hole needs to be enlarged, though....

    what model is this new one for?, thats looks like it would work perfect with some easy trimming. otherwise i will have to fab one from scratch.

    worked on the x today and by chance i had a hump plate for my 66 chevelle that i am converting from floor shift powerglide to 4 speed {currently in body shop jail} so i stole that and it worked really,really good! only a little trimming on the oval cutout. plus the extra material it had covered the last persons mess. thanks for the help guys.

    Charlie please do. I have to repair my floor, I have the original 4spd hump but it is not repairable. With the cost of the consoles lately I may just go rubber boot as my console is long gone.

    I'd be curious to see it too. I have 3 humps that all need repairs and was figuring on fixing the best one for my car but if this can be made to look correct...

    The correct non-consolette boot isn't available either - I need 2 of them. It used to be avail. from Year One. I need to post if anyone has an old catalog as I'd like to get the part # & see if the mold is still available & what the minimum order qty. would be to have them made. I thought it was a decently made piece last time I used one.
