Ok, the bottom shifter in the picture.... Does anyone know what year B-body that is suppose to be in?



I need to know what year it's from so I can order one for a '69 B-body....

But will also fit any other 66-70 B-body cars with console. BTW, better knuckle clearance if you also use the 70 mechanism.

The difference is the length of the 3 fingers that stick out of the bottom of shifter mechanism. It will either lenghten the throw of the shifter or shorten the throw.
SHIFTER MECHANISMS
E-BODY #7180 ON REV Finger
70 B-BODY #7174 ON REV Finger
A/B-BODIES #6353 ON REV Finger

I had the bottom shifter handle in my 64 Polara with a console for a while, but then I installed the second handle, which is a 71 B body bench seat model. I had to make a little piece to step the handle over a little to clear the console, but it works great!
