Default 4 speed conversion wanted.

I just bought a 72 with an automatic. I want to change to a 4 speed. Need all parts for swap.

I have a nice looking (internally) M-21 with a Hurst shifter from a 72 Corvette, rear yoke, back up light switch, bellhousing for an 11" clutch with the fork boot & inspection shield, nice z-bar, clutch fork and the long rod w/swivel, what I don`t have is the short rod and a pedal assembly, if you or anyone else is interested in any of it send a PM

I have an original 4 speed shifter with rods and the shifter bracket that bolts to the cross member
I have the little stuff that you may need that goes to Z bar
I also may have the brackets that you need to weld to the frame for the Z bar
Thanks, Grant

I've got all the pieces to build a brake/clutch pedal assembly (mount bracket, pedals, etc.) They just need to be blasted, painted (or powder-coated), reassembled, and install some new parts. I could do this for you for a reasonable price if you are interested...

I have the bellhousing, clutch assembly, rebuilt M-21 out of a 66, Hurst shifter with linkage, Z bar, rods, throwout bearing, and clutch fork. I have mostly everything you need less the clutch pedal assembly. All of the parts are off the car and ready for pickup in Tennessee.

Steve, while I don't have any 4 speed stuff available [ I managed to ruin the one thing I would have let go of, the bell housing], if you have something like a 3.08 rear I would recommend scouring craigslist for a richmond or doug nash 4+1. In hindsight, I would have gone this route years ago before rebuilding my 4 speed and then putting in 3.55's, and now putting in a richmond overdrive.

The 4+1's turn up every so often and usually come with a shifter...would make for a killer set up vs any 4 speed combo
