Another shift linkage question

[Duvall]

Ok, I have a 72 that once was a column shift. I would guess it was a three speed. The truck has been converted to a automatic. The PO put a floor shifter in. I want to put the shifter on the column.

My question is, will the column that was a three speed work with an automatic. I have a lokar linkage kit but don't have the lever or the gear indicater. I know there are different levers for the column and I live close to Early Classic Enterprise so I do have access to the parts needed. I was just trying to avoid having to buy a new steering column.

Has anyone done this switch in the past?

Thanks
