Welcome to the site! There's lots of members here who are 1969 owners. As your restoration progresses let us know of any questions that come up. If you have the time we've got a forum called major builds. That's for people to document their restoration projects.

Cool. FYI, the column shift was what you got if you simply ordered the AT (RPO M40). The floor shift was extra cost. The bench was also a readily available credit option (RPO A52). Neither were "special order", just boxes that got checked on the regular order sheet. Good luck with the car. The correct rear would be a Type O axle.

There's nothing wrong with a column shift or bench car for automatics. A properly set up transmission will shift better than most people on its own. I can see the argument for floor shifters for manual cars, although banging the three is fun.
