    Hello GP fans.... I have a 69 GP with an automatic.... looking to go to a 4sp... I need help in tracking down 2 items.... some of you may have these :-)

    1. The Counter Shaft bracket ... original GM part number was 09795672
    *** I have seen several parts shop "claim" to have a functionally correct bracket, this is fine...I do not "have to have" the OEM bracket... but it needs to fit using the factory holes :-)
    2. 4sp console plate (I know they are stupid rare, but someone might have one)

    Also, anyone with pictures / advise of a similar conversion they have done would be great... and any input on the best place to get a munci transmission (re built is fine).

    Thanks to all.

    Hi, I'd like to convert mine too but would use modern stuff instead. A friend's 69 (lives a few hours away and I don't have pics or details on that setup) is using a TKO successfully. As far as I know theres not much 69 GTO parts that don't work on 69 GP except body and trim. I do know that most any auto body, welding, or metal shop could fabricate an appropriate bracket for you.

    Try these guys for your elusive items-
