longer, it is a 2.9 v6 with auto on the floor,,, and tilt whell

You'll be looking at an 90-91(or2?) ranger/bronco or an exploder... they
were the first column shifters that I KNow of...
might get lucky and find one in a junk yard.. the linkages may just bolt
right up.. donno for sure... but just a suggestion...

None that I know of.

You can do anything if you throw enough money and time at it. I'd
suggest that you start by swapping in a column-shift steering column,
and then fabbing up a shift linkage. Perhaps a full-size Ford truck
would be a good source for parts.
