Well, the auto to manual swaps I've heard of usually required at least
some BFH work on the floor pan. Then there are all the linkages and
console metal/plastic work.

No, there weren't.
Why not just look for the car you want, all in one piece already? I'd
say an interior swap or a paint job (to get your favorite color scheme)
would be easier than these other franken-projects.
