Only seen a few 455 column shift firebirds. Anyone have pictures of a 455 ho or SD with a column auto and a original bench seat? Thanks

Is that the one that was in MI for sale?

I do not know. I saw the pictures on FB.

I think there is a '71 for sale north of Detroit on Facebook. If that's the one you're thinking of, it has a console.

No, the '71 belongs to a good friend of mine.
The pics above of the '72 were from a Facebook Markeplace ad which also happened to be in MI.

No benches available but several column shift SD's and 455s are out there. If you didn't order a console, you got the column shift.

Here's a link to the infamous Super Duty 73 Trans Am ordered new by Larry Leist in primer gray that came with a column shift since it was ordered with a rear seat console instead of a front console. The one of one red 1972 Trans Am was also a column shift automatic, a guy in Texas owns both of these cars last I knew.
