You'd have to chop the tunnel to make a spot for the rear-mounted shifter. Having a mroe modern appearing short shifter back by the seats could be a positive or a negative, depending on your mood and outlook, I guess.

If you use an S10 pickup T5, the shifter would be farther forward, but still not as far forward as the long Volvo shifter. And the S10 T5's aren't nearly as strong, but still strong than an M40/41.
