Welcome to the club. Great looking car; I assume a small block given your problems?? I could be wrong?
Please post up more pictures, thanks.
Where are you based?

Yes, advertise away, but floor shift and column shift transmissions are the same with different linkages.

a right never realised it was just the linkages that was the only difference between floor and column shift, im not used to american motors but im learning quickly , thanks for comments , im quite proud of my shed took me and a builder 6 weeks to build, was hard going ,the steel beam that holds the roof up is half of a montracon truck trailer , took a bit of work cutting it up and making it fit was way cheaper than an 11 metre steel beam from the local steel stockholder , the other half wasnt to chuffed i turned the back garden into an industrial estate lol
