Vette(s): ' 76 Customized .Mid year rear window ( ' 67 style ). It has an '80 nose,'80 rear bumper , and a 76 hood . Also , I squeezed in a ' 94 Vette LT1 . Paint is a custom mixed BLACK with RED PEARL mixed in !
I believe that's what I bought . I remember something about an adapter . That's probably it .
As for a pic of the gear ? If the only way it can be seen is through the hole where the sensor  is, might not be too easy . I'll take a look next time I go there , but, no promising anything .

Well, guess what ?!? The trouble in shifting was all in the computer !!! I sent it back down to Street and Performance . They reprogrammed it . I connected everything, and presto !! She now shifts just as it should !! It may hve been incorrectly programmed from the start , or, I might have done something to it when I  mistakenly cut into one of the computer wires to get power for another wire .
So now, except for body and paint, the conversion is finally done !! Took it out for a short test run ( mainly for the tranny ) , and, I have to say, it is a pretty nasty ride !!
