Hi guys : Went to install my floor shifter and console today and I have the incorrect shifter for a 72 Lark. I need the part that bolts to the floor,but will consider what ever else comes along. Let me know . Ken
Hi this is from a Cutlass in the same year range year and who knows maybe they used the same mounting plate on the bottom,worth posting a pic and maybe someone will know if it will work,Goodluck with your search.
shifter I have the metal part that bolts to the floor. I bought it when I was going to get rid of my power bench, but never used it. If you want it, pay the shipping. I think I paid around 35.00 for it years ago. Eric
shifter Eric: Thanks for the swift reply. I will take it if it will fit a 72. Let me know how many $ to send. Ken
shifter I should have clarified my post: I need the shifter base that bolts to the floor only for an auto trans. Ken
http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=90450&highlight=floor+shifter+conversion This is a link to a thread I posted on this same subject a few weeks ago. It has pictures of the shifter base you need. Shifters are the same for 70-72 Skylarks. Hope this helps.
shifter Dan: Thanks for the pics. I do have the incorrect shifter. The pics sre great tell me everything I need to know.Now if I can just find the correct one.Ken
shifter Ken, i thinkmine must be for the Century style because it is more flat in the front,not raised like the one in the pics. The shifter part is the same. Eric
the evasive shifter Ever had a week that you would rather not had happed??? This week I have made 50 phone calls and viewed 25 pieces of input trying to locate a shifter for my 72 Lark. Every alley has turned into a dead end. Finally I locate a guy on E-bay that has one and lives 5 miles from me.WHAT A STROKE OF LUCK. He is asking an outrages price but HEY---- at this point I am willing step up and pay the fee. Callled him to set up a time to get the shifter. He says call in the morn at 8:30 and he will tell me where to get it. Called at 8:30 the next morn and he tells me he has forgot about ther shifter. He will call in 2 hours and let me know where he is. No call that day. The next day I call and he will return my call. You guessed it no call. I was so confident that I had a shifter I erased all my leads on the pc. Can't get a hold of this guy no answer. Don't know what to do. If anyone has a lead on a shifter please let me know. Frustrated in CO.
Try calling The Parts Place, that's where I finally found the correct base. http://www.thepartsplaceinc.com/
