Hello all, it has been a long time since I posted. Reason being I sold my 64 Lesabre to aquire a 1963 Pontiac Bonneville that has been in the family since 1964. I have looked all over the internet, but there isnt too much help out there. My Bonneville is a 3 speed column shift, and I would like to keep it that way. My problem is, there isnt any parts out there to keep my column functioning properly. There is some slop, which I located to be coming from the lower 2/3 gear linkage. This is preventing my column from engaging into 3rd gear. The gear lever goes all the way down, but you can barely feel the gear engaging. The "bushing" or whatever it may be on the 2/3 gear linkage bar mounted to the frame is worn out and has enough play for the problem. Does anybody know who would have these bushings or pilot bearings? Any suggetions? Here is a pick of the new ride...
Beautiful bonneville - love a three on the tree! show a picture of the bushing- I think it may be a common hurst shifter bushing as on eBay a picture will help!
