1960 Automatic Conversion - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am converting my 60 short fleet from a 4 spd manual to a 700R4 auto. I found a steering column and pedal assembly from a 64 GMC and I have a few questions. Is there anything else I need? My shifter is missing from the column and does anybody know if the shifter from a newer column will work? Or does somebody reproduce this? I would also like a picture of how the linkage is setup from the factory. I assume i will have to make some sort of bracket off the frame for it to pivot on like the 67-72's have. Thanks.
