Needed Transmission linkage for 64 Beaumont floor shift

Actually need 2 things.
First is the lever that attaches to the transmission and then to the rod which goes to the lower arm of the floor shifter. It is coming up more in a grey colour on my screen although it was hi-lited with an orange marker.
From the parts books it looks like the shift lever is common to 64 thru 67 Beaumont/Chevelle and 64 thru 67 B body.
Second is the kick down linkage from the carb to the transmission ( actually 3 pieces to the assembly ). It is hi-lited in blue.
From the parts books it looks like this assembly is mostly common to V8s on 63 thru 66 Chevy11/ Acadian, 64 thru 67 Chevelle/Beaumont and 63 thru 66 full size Chev and Cdn Pontiac. When I say mostly common it appears that the upper rod can change depending on motor/carburetor size.
Yes, exactly. It is the center section of a 3 part linkage. That part mounts across the top of the bell housing crossways. From 1 end of it a rod goes to the carburetor. From the other end a rod goes to the powerglide transmission.
Do you also have the 2 rods?

I have this. One is thicker than the other.
I also have a 17 inch one that goes to the tranny.

From the pic it would appear either would be correct.
Yes I would need the other piece also.
Might you have the other lever ( bracket ) off the transmission?
Oh, and do you have a price in mind?

This really is a community of Pontiac people helping each other.
Just to give you a sequence of events here
1) initially parts wanted posted by myself
2) Brian notices one of the pieces in the background of an unrelated post by Hagar
3) Brian is nice enough to take the initiative to PM me with what he saw
4) I PM Hagar making him aware of my initial parts wanted post asking if he can help
5) things progress parts are located and I'm informed that they are for sale at a very reasonable price..agree to purchase.
6) now we just need to pay and have shipped
What a group!
BTW.. a donation will be made to CP for playing a big part in making this happen

Parts arrived today, actually 1 week ahead of Canada Posts projected delivery date.
Parts in extremely nice condition and exact down to the last little fasteners. Well packaged.
Thrilled with how this worked out.

See diagram below
Anyone have these available for sale?
The kick down linkage can be from any model ( sedan, hdtp, conv, 2 dr, 4 dr, wagon )
this is what you saw in the photo!
