yep. Use http://crazedlist.org to search CL's in multiple areas. Maybe you can get someone to ship you one.

You need one that's 78 or newer and has 4 splines on the input shaft. 77 and older have the wrong length drive and shift shafts. They look the same but they aren't.not sure how new you can go,but I just bought an 88 that's the same.
