You could change yours to a floor shift unit and keep the overdrive. Unless there is something wrong with the one you have.

Does your 3 speed overdrive still work? I might want to buy it.

I think you can get a shifter for under $50US. I'm not sure how much the transmission is worth since I would have to ship it to Tennessee. I would have to be sure it worked in all gears and I would have to have the complete wiring harness with it(if you take out that tranny, you won't need the harness anyway). I am not sure what 4spd you are wanting but I have an extra t-18 around here somewhere.
