I am in the process of restoring a 1971 Olds 442. It was an original manual car but later in life someone switched it to an auto and welded in a very rough patch on the floor pan for the auto I believe.
I'm trying to get that hole right again for the manual and shifter with console. Wondering if anyone has pics with dimensions or reference points so that I can correct this issue? Also if the pics showed the console mounting locations too that would be awesome. Here is a pic of what I have now....

Thanks.

 

not everything you need, but what is on my hard drive. This is for 1971 automatic: All from the assembly manual

 

Thanks. I have the shop assembly manual but I was looking for more guidance on the exact size of the hole, it's position on the tunnel, and where the mounting brackets are attached.

 

Sorry, I misread your post; you want to go back to manual.
