Saw the wheelbarrow thing and as inventive as it was I cringe at the thought of someone looking into my engine bay and seeing "craftsman" stamped on the set back sheetmetal!
Teetoe - Since your running the Transaxle version of the T56 do you really lose that much foot space? Do you have photos of the footwells? 6 1/2 inches doesn't seem like a lot to move it back so I don't understand why your factory dash wouldn't work but you are obviously experiencing this so you should know. Couldn't you have shortened the torque tube or move the shifter forward and lengthen the shifter rod that goes from the shifter to the Trans? Pics would be greatly appreciated as I am thinking of doing this in my '66 Nova.
Thanks!
