Outstanding combination, Sickee32; absolute nostalgia. A Hurst three speed shifter is a good thing, too; plenty robust and durable. And, what a blast from the past; I had all the stuff to make that floor shift conversion in the trunk of my car ('51 2 door) when I went into the Navy in '59. My Dad sold the car sometime during the ensuing four years, and whatever was in it went with it.
