Hey Pete,
If production numbers for column shift T/As exist, I am not aware of them. Column shift is fairly common on AAR Cudas, but T/As with it are a bit scarcer.

If you have D32 on your fender tag without C16 then it came with column shift.

I checked my files. For Banana T/As, I have heard of three T/As so far with column shift.

One was regsitered with Jeffery Coe's original T/A Registry. The other two I have just "heard of". None of the three have actually been registered officially with me.

If you register I will know if it is one of those three or a fourth one.  ;)

it's your car so do what you want, but it would be really cool to convert it back, just think of the conversation piece it would be

Any updates on this, Pete?  That'd be pretty cool if it works out to be an original column shift T/A, but I'd probably prefer the floor shift as well.

A friend of mine had a new Orange TA that had a bench seat and column shifter  :grinyes: Yours was obviously converted.
