Looking for some 65 Parisienne console/shifter parts

Hey there, oi got a console and Powerglide shifter, but the shift plate and linkage rod are missing. So i'm looking for a shift plate with chrome trim (The one with PRNDL), it's metal cover piece (the one with grain black metal surface) , linkage assembly and console mount brackets (or brackets measurements so i could manufacture). Maybe some more things i don't know about to put the console back successfully.
Ideally also would be great to get the Custom Sport badge from the console, as mine says SS:)
I may have one somewhere, but can't be certain that I still have it. Don't remember where I put all this extra stuff but will look on the weekend. Still looking for extra CS badges too (another post)
I do have a console top as well. A bit pitted and worn, but may have the emblem in it.

I found the console top and it has the emblem. So far no luck on finding the shifter plate, but will keep looking.
I have one half of the Indicator plate. It isn't show quality, but if you have nothing....These are also available repop through Classic Industries. Look under Belair or Biscayne.
A note on the autopartsobsolete site. I bought 1 wheel well molding, stainless trim, NOS still in the package in 2021 from them. It was $50 USD at the time, on flebay they were $200-400 or $950+ for a set. The shipping from Arizona was $50, ( I was in Florida) but to Canada you know it would have been $100+ after duty etc. Parcel was oversize. So I get it looks good in the old GM wrapper, great! Couple days later I decide to take the sticky GM wrapper off and don't you know its damaged in one spot, somehow got crushed BEFORE it was packaged to me.
I took several pictures and called and talked to the guy (I think it's a small company with only 2 guys running out of a shop) Really, not a problem, just return it and I'll send you a new one.... So I said to him, part was $50, shipping $50, return is $50 and to send it back is $50 ( I don't think he was going to pay the shipping back to me the second time) Can I send you the pics of it still in the wrapper showing the damage?
"No, company policy, you have to return the product before we will send you a new one" Just a warning of what to expect if it goes sideways
** Note... I had looked high and low for just the one of these parts. This guy told me that they go around to dealers going out of business and buy up all their parts. He told me they had "lots of this part". When you look through the site, he has some rare stuff at discounted prices for sure.

Seems I found the linkage also.
My current setup:)

Time to risk my credit card?:)
What place?
Do they take Paypal?
Seems they accept PayPal at express checkout only
2 reviews on BBB, both bad. Hmmm....
