I have a really nice 1976 auto column will it fit into my 70 pickup rite now it has a crappy floor auto shifter and i would love to make it a auto on the column. Plus its free fabing up bracket is not a problem. thanks

In my opinion, it looks poor. Then you have to do away with the ignition switch on the dash.

good point about the ignition switch. I should just buy a nice floor shifter like a lokar unit . thank for the quick reply

Lokar makes a great shifter. I have used a couple of them over the years. Always happy with them.

You also wouldn`t have a shift indicator since they are in the dash.
