Re: The Junkyard... 1971 C10 aka another good deal

I had been struggling to figure out how or what I was going to use for a shifter since I did not want to spend a ton on an aftermarket one or a Camaro shifter. I found a shifter for a '07 GMC Acadia on Ebay for $39 that has PRNDL and TU/TD buttons. I figured I may have to adjust the throw somewhat but I didn't after all. I took the '14 vans steering column and drilled out the spot welds to take the mount since the cable wouldn't attach to the shifter and the mount on the shifter. It works perfectly and I just need to make a console for it to sit on. I also raided our old sheet shelf and talked the wife into letting me use this lovely floral pattern sheet as a seat cover.
