Already answered.

Maybe someone else who missed it the first time will pop in here, but you don't exactly have a common problem. Maybe try a local antique or classic car club.

Good luck!

You may want to check LMC Truck, I'm pretty sure they have kits for this conversion.

It's pretty straight forward. You'll probably have to go with a floor shifter.
I have a 65 with the floor shift automatic. If I had my preferance, I would go with an aftermarket column shifter. It is cleaner and more user friendly.
