WTB 3 Speed Column Linkage, and shift lever

Hello,

Looking for 3 speed column shift linkage, and Shift Lever. This is for my 1978 GMC C15. I'd like to reverse the floor shifter a pervious owner installed. Anyone have a set lying around they'd like to sell? I'd also be willing to trade the floor shifter that's currently installed on the truck.

That's a specific amount. Is that because of shipping? Do you know if the transmission matters. I think I have the Tremec T160. Also, Any pics you can post?

I wish I had remembered you were in AZ! I was at the GCC (GLENDALE COMMUNITY COLLEGE) swap meet over the weekend and there was a super clean complete 3 on the tree column.

Damn, I was there too...looking for linkage. I saw one vendor that had a bunch in a milk crate. Not sure what 78 Linkage looks like though.

I'll look for it next time I go. If he still has it. My truck has the Tremec T160 trans. Seems linkage might be hard to find.

I have a set of linkages from a 1980 C10 that had a Saginaw 3-speed. Not sure if they will work for you or not.

Thanks for the offer. I have a set coming, I'm going to try. I'm pretty sure I have the Tremec 3 speed. So the Saginaw linkage may not work?
