67Cheby, That looks like an easy cure.. Did the high hump come in a certain year or transmission option? Thanks for the help!

The easiest ones to find are in manual trans trucks but they also came in 4x4's and those trucks with a T-400.

Until last weekend I had an extra one I would have given you. I just put it into my 67.

They aren't too hard to find and tend to run around $40 to $60 in good shape when I have seen them for sale.

A square body truck piece is a whole lot easier to find and fits pretty close but the back end doesn't match up and the lower corners of the front are mismatched a little. With a little fab work you could make one fit if you have a hard time finding a good 67-72 piece.

The T-56 is the same length as the 4L60E so the shifter should be within the high hump tunnel area.

The trans in the pic below is a 4L60E.

The worst thing you would need is an offset shifter handle to push the lever forward away from the front of the seat a little.
