i think a lot of the firebird / trans am buyers were quite shocked when their car they ordered came in with column shift. on the firebird line if you checked automatic and didnt order the console it defaulted to column shift. i have a 69 ta that i bought from the original owner (lived in my neighborhood) who bought it new here in tulsa. (it is actually the very first trans am i ever laid eyes on) he told me that when they ordered it they assumed it would be like the mustangs with the floor shift automatic with no console. when it came in he was very disappointed. it is one of the 32 ta's made with ac.
