5 speed in a 1965 fairlane sports coupe

What parts could I use to do a 5 speed manual swap into my automatic 65 fairlane sports coupe?

you will need a 5 speed trans, bellhousing, flyhweel, clutch, throw out bearing and fork, pressure plate, pilot bearing, fab up a new trans cross member or modify your original, trans mount, clutch pedal assembly, z-bar (equalizer bar)and upper and lower rods, z-bar engine mount, z-bar frame mount and any hardware needed to bolt it all together. Not sure if the shifter location for a 5 spd will be in the same location as the 4 speed shifter location, so some modification to the tunnel will be needed.

Instead of hunting for all of the linkage parts, why not go with a T5 and a cable actuated clutch?
