HELP ME! SHIFTY DECISIONS

I am looking to eliminate my stock column shifter(70 coronet), have looked around at all the options from hurst b&m ect... but am looking for some input, my cars interior is not modified and I like the stock look within reason. I have the bench seat in the car and am afraid I will be leaning over to reach the shifter, or it wont fit right with the bench seat, manula valve body-reverse manual valve body?? ect... any input-pictures greatly appreciated!- I know very little about this:confused:
