Hi,

My car is a 440RT with a colum shift. Does anyone else have a JS car with colum shift? It seems odd to me that somone would purchase a big block or performance car and not option it with a console?
It is going to stay a colum shift because......well just because it is already there!

Cheers

Danny

It is pretty common actually. I love it myself, the consoles in these cars are pretty cheesy.

Yeah my mate had a 440 68 Coronet R/T with column shift.

Handy if you wanted a performance car as well as a front bench seat for those intimate evenings with the girlfriend. :wink:

:twisted: I like. :twisted: Too bad its got buckets. I've not even seen a picture of a Challenger with a front bench...Do they exist? I guess most plain jane cars with a factory bench front seat would be a clone by now and the bench would be long gone.

Yes, they exist.

The bench seats were an extra cost option in fact.

The bench seat cars are near the bottom.
