G'day from Down Under.  I find myself the owner of a 1968 convertible that, on the evidence (it's still in USA, so I'm going on pics) is a 3 speed manual (which makes it "rare" with only 326 built*, but not necessarily desirable) and originally carried the base 327/300 motor, but now has a 69 or later shift console with a 327/350 i.d. plate and 4 speed pattern.

1968E (2nd month production) convertible first registered California 1967 and a retired SCCA race car.  It is still race prepped and built up as a '69 ZR1 (announced '69 but not built until '70); i.e., the L88 car with LT1 motor.

Try Paragon. They do NOT have one listed on their website, but they do stock good used stuff. You'll need to call, or send them and inquiry via the website.

Also, give Larry at a shot, He has some rare stuff like that sometimes, and he's also a Sponsoring member here...we like to send business his way if possible.

I've sent email queries to both.  Cheers.

I've struck out with both references, on the 3 speed shifter plate.  Could there be another solution, or is the 68/69 3 speed car just too rare (less than 1% of those two year's production)?

We checked all our sources, including the ones with hidden stashes of NOS parts, and couldn't find one.  I am afraid it will take a miracle to find a used one, or find a picture and have one machined.  It is a pretty simple piece, so possible to duplicate.
