Hi goku :
Sorry for the late reply .
Thank you for your comment .I did the dash by making the cracks deeper and useing car body filler and painting it with under body tarp paint . is not the best .
The better way is to use fiber glass to fill and cover completly and then paint it .
My petrol tank was ok and I just cleaned and painted it .
Hi goku :
To do this conversion dont you have to cut the well to instal a the tower for the short shifter ?
Do you live in Australia ? I am from Sydney .

hi Amir, AWESOME how you rebuilt your B1. looks very neat
Yes, you will need to Cut out the Channel and weld in the later model one..
The Later channels sit much higher than the ones you and i have ( i own a 75 LS coupe )
older models like ours came out 4 speed with crap Shifters
Its needed for us of the setup you referencing and for use of the 5Speed gearboxes.
My LS coupe
The Channel Conversion
Cut out the Old Channel
Weld in the Raised Later model channel
Difference in Linkages
Older Models Top ( attached to box )
New models bottom
Mountings are diff too..
Old mounting sits to rear of box
New ones are to side of box ( below taillight is mounting and brackets )
I have a Parts car i will be cutting up soon. car stood for a While and only got back into it now
As she stands
Rebuilt Engine, did some bodywork so getting there
Looks good
