I am running the origional 3 speed manual (on the column) behind the I8 in my Buick. They used to sell floor shift conversions for these right? Can I still get one?

My dad was telling me they might be found in a JCWhitney, but after looking I don't think so....

Any help will be appreciated. The timing would be great as I have no carpet in the old bastard right now and it would be a weekend project that could be handled quickly.

Maybe I better specify that this is an all origional '50 Buick, there were shifters for Chevys and Fords, and a few other odds and ends, but not for this vintage of Buick.

I am just wondering, I don't need anything. I just thought I'd ask if there was anyone from this board that I might possibly run into live and in person. I live in Muscatine, Iowa. It's about 20 min south of the Quad Cities. I usually make it to a handful of the shows/swaps in and around that area. I also get to the bigger swaps in Cedar Rapids and Iowa City as well.  

I have never met anyone on the HAMB that even lives close to me so I am not getting my hopes up. I have met a handful of folks from the HAMB at the Hunnert Car Pile-up but that's it. I never got to meet Denise, which is a shame. She is so helpful and fun-loving. I wish I'd stayed at the hotel with the rest of the gang. Maybe next time. That is if I can get this * over-heating beast to calm down * straight eights...).
