*update* powerglide is in. i have to sort some issues with the convertor. i changed shifters from a b&m quicksilver to a tci outlaw. b&m shifter is for sale, comes complete with a drop box so it sits under the stock console and there is a button in the top of the knob for the trans-brake. so from this to this [/COLOR] Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
