The bottom shifter looks like its to suit a later model gearbox to me.

I would stick with the collum shift, having done a floor shift myself (auto), mutch neeter on the collum. IMHO

Neither of those shifters are straight line impalas, the first looks like the old non sincro H pattern and the other the full sincro H pattern.
Straight line impalas are awesome, they do need to be adjusted properly though and sometimes need two hands to select first.
