Hi, My 69 charger started life as a console auto car, at some point somebody ATTEMPTED to make it into a manual trans :rotz: so, now I'm trying to straighten it out does somebody sell the floor piece that would convert it back? I drilled the spot welds out so I basically need the exact same pattern as the manual That can fit into the tunnel on the floor :eyes: anybody know a source?...Thanks

You can't buy it as a repro so you'd have to buy it from someone selling off a floor or from someone who switched to a 4-speed. You're probably better off buying the whole tunnel from someone to make sure you get enough metal. FYI - you can use the tunnel from any B-body. It might be cheaper if you say you're looking for a Satellite or Coronet piece since saying "69 Charger" when looking for parts automatically doubles the price. ;)

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

Thats what I was afraid of..... :icon_smile_blackeye: I'll have to see if I have enough off another section, the sad thing is it has pretty nice solid floors, I think I'll name it franken-charger ::) Thanks for the reply!

I'm doing the same thing. I found a tranny tunnel on ebay for 50 bucks to get the side off of it to make a patch
I've seen others on there you just gotta keep lookin

Sorry for my delay, I got my tranny tunnel fixed up. It's not completlely to factory specs but it does the job and I can hide the uglies with carpet as well as the console.    :icon_smile_big:
