    Flea market buy. Guy said it was Ford but didn't know what model or year. He had a lot of mystery parts and this one screamed for me to take it home. $10.

    It's a functional ratchet floor mount with the illuminated bezel included. It shifts smoothly and engages positively. It also has a few wires that go to who knows what.

    I looked on Ebay at the Monza and Vega interiors and their floor automatics look different.

    I believe it's GM myself.
    I figured Monza/Vega myself the instant I saw it, but if you say it isn't...
    My old man has a Monza with 4 speed and his shifter has a finger lifted lockout just like that and the console has the same general shape.
    I don't remember what an auto shifter looks like though.

    I think its GM as well.The plugs on the side made me say Hmm??Kinda mopar looking.But I agree GM liked to use the revlockout set up,so I feel it is most likely GM.
