short shaft, should be a truck tilt

Looks like a truck tilt to me. Here are some pics if the differences. RV, Van, and Truck. They all can be fitted into a truck. On second look it appears to be a floor shift model. Is that what you have?

Truck tilt. Did someone epoxy over the automatic shifter bowl, or change the collar? The NSS location is correct, but I don't think the manual trans/floor shift columns used them (not 100% sure though)
