67 Bench seat 4 speed
Permalink  

Has anyone ever seen a bench seat 4 speed that was factory installed in a 67 full size Canadian Pontiac? The parts book says they use this same chrome bezel but when I started thinking about it, I don't think I've ever seen one. Seems to me someone here mentioned a while back they had seen a 4 speed 67 Strato Chief. This should be what it had.

To add to this, I know we've seen 69 and 68 bench 4 speed cars here, but now that I think about it, I don't think we've seen a factory built 66 or 65 either. Anyone?

 Hi Carl.  I'm sorry I'm not much help. I have never seen a 1967 full-size with bench seat and for speed.   But I want to ask you, do you know where I could get one of those hump/bezels??

I seem to remember a rusty 67 chrome bezel on ebay a year or so ago - obviously from a Chevy. The 68/69 hump is totally different.

As original as that looks I wonder if it's been added. I checked the parts book for Pontiac and Chevrolet B body and they are only showing that part for 67.

Carl, you think maybe 65/66 Full Pontiacs didn't have the Chrome bezel and just a trim ring and rubber boot like the Chevies?

Probably why there wasn't a listing for a bezel for 65/66.

Maybe the 67 4 speed/bench never got had any orders ?

Here are a few pictures. The first picture is from another website of a recently restored 66 Biscayne.

The second picture is an all original 66 Impala 4 door.

Yes, my bet is 66 Chev and Pontiac looked like your beige and blue pictures.

And that's another thing, I guess I've never seen or heard of a 65 Canadian Pontiac bench seat 4 speed either. Has anyone?

Come to think of it, I haven't seen a bench seat 4-speed Canadian 67 Pontiac. They were available but were so rarely ordered that few can recall seeing them.

 

That chrome bezel that Mr. Stevenson posted is a 67-only piece. Earlier cars used the colour-keyed grommet that Greaser posted. For 1968 the shifters were changed and a different supplier supplied them. They no longer had the reverse lockout trigger (used springs in the mechanism instead), the lever went flat like a blade and often said "Muncie", the bezel changed, the mountings changed as well (at least for the Beaumonts, not 100% on the Big cars). Even the shift ball changed from white to black for 68.

 

A couple of pictures I have on my computer from 2005/2006:

A 66 Impala 396 4-speed wagon (not the Canadian one with Fawn interior.) Note the correct grommet, although it has been screwed down by somebody.

More of that 4-speed 66 4-door. It is a 390-horse 427, M20 4-speed, C60 a/c, U16 Tachometer which moves the clock onto the top of the dash, all in a snoozy 4-door Impala sedan.
