Converting Auto Temp Control to Manual

My 69 sedan has the auto temp control system that does not work very well. I have a 69 parts car that has the manual climate control system and would like to convert the sedan to this set up. I would appreciate any advice or experience from anyone who has made this switch. Thanks!

I just acquired a 1969 Lincoln sedan in great condition. The drive shift lever is apparently in need of adjustment. Reverse is engaged when the indicator is showing neutral , neutral is Drive, etc. Also the lever must be pulled up when in "Park" in order for the engine to start. Has anyone...
