Does anyone have a lead on a Horse Shoe Floor shifter for a '71 Buick Skylark? Or does anyone know if I could substitute an after market Horse Shoe shifter?

Not sure if 72 and 71 are the same with appearance.

If just looking for a horseshoe style, assume it a Turbo 350 or 400 trans, you could look at other GM bodies, but if trying to fit into a existing console expect modifications.
Console & shifter
1972 Buick skylark black console and automatic shifter with cable and shift mechanism. Console needs cosmetics: new myler, glove box button, slight crack that would be hidden by seats(not broken, fix with plastic weld). Otherwise very nice used piece.

Ok thanks for the advice, I have the console already so I'll try modifying an after market shifter.

If you can get some exploded views it may help on comparison, didn't know you already had a console. You might find it on Ebay, you might have tried, but it could be a hurry up and wait. Maybe someone else on the forum would know, also check v8buick.com.

Thanks for the advice, I think that's defiantly going to be the case of having to wait.
