The installation kit....

Expect to spend 450 to 600 bucks depending on what shifter you use.

You can make a real good floor shift conversion from the column shift mechanism from the older Ford's. I made one in the early 60's for a '54 Ford I had at the time. Had a friend that worked in the machine shop make me a large brass ball for the end of the shift lever. Man, was I cool!

There are a lot of floor shifter conversions on eBay for less than $100. Just about all of them are for pickup trucks. They seem to be pretty common. I sold a "new in the box" Spark-o-Matic for $100 to a guy a few months ago; keep looking,
