I was looking into mustang short shifters a while ago and I'm fairly certain that I read a build that of someone who did it in their AU, and the 'stang of the same era was compatible

There was something in regards to shifter position that did make this incompatible. I just can't remember where I saw it mentioned. The design is different enough to make it not work from my understanding.

Isn't the short shifter on Antwons car a mustang one from the states, Mechan1k?

I was under the impression that the difference was just that the american gear levers are more suited to their left seat driving position but the shifter should still fit?
