They must have broken open the OD extension case to rebuild the rear 1/2.

"Converted to a floor shift"? 39 was a floor shift. It was never anything else.

For plymouth 39 was a transition year. The roadking models were floor shift and the deluxe had column shift.

Interesting. Did the column shift have the shifter on top like the old version, or was it on the side like the new version?

The P-8 transmission case and gears is the same- top loader or column shift. . The column shift transmission top cover-- late 1939 has the shifting mechanism built into it-kinda like the B series dodge trucks. This cover uses a cable operated detent and a regular shift rod/lever out the side of the cover too.
