Just finish the 5speed swap in the shell? The amount of time and money you'll be wasting making it auto or getting an auto shell, you could put into the 5 speed shell.

y dont even need to do anything really for the auto to work in the 5speed shell. remove the clutch pedel and all lines . use the original brake setup. and as far as wireing i have a 1jzgte with its harness and ecu. so replace the 5speed ecu with the 1jzgte auto and extendthe harness 26 to 28 inches. only thing that might not work after the swap without fixing is the rpm gauge.. quick fix run a aftermarket rpm gauge as i am doing.. the body i have for the 5speed is great no rust at all and for me being in NH thats the biggest plus ever. got the swap started will post pics asap
