The bench seat option required a column shifter. You couldn't get a floor shift if you checked off the strato bench seat option. If there's a factory installed floor shifter with the bench seat option, I want to see the docs.
I didn't realize the order process with a bench seat was column shifter specific. Learn something every day! I assumed it was like the other models where you just got a different style shifter when you ordered them together(bench and floor shift). Is there a seat and shifter package for the 1st gen. Firebird? I do see you can't get a console with the bench.
