My dad and I noticed that both my 70 SS and his 71 SS, both of which originally came with floor shifted TH400's, have the column shift bracket. Let me try to explain this:
Where the column shift lever normally is, we have a collar with nowhere to mount a lever. That makes sense. What doesn't make sense is the fact that both of us have an arm that protudes from the bottom of the column, down by where the headers are (we noticed because mine hits my headers). In a column-shifted car, this arm would connect to the transmission. Did all Chevelles have this, regardless of transmission?
