    I have a PBR tap handle on my 54 Chevy but I wish I didn't.

    Yeah, that's what they all say.....;)
     
  5. Beer tap handles are ok with me on a 50's-60's mild custom with an automatic tranny...I prefer my hotrods to have a simple shift ball. Nothing more than my personal preference based on my personal taste. Yours may vary.

    I knew I kept all of them for a reason!!! I've ended up with around 150 over the last 7 years in the beer business! Just could not bring myself to throw them out or make shift knobs out of them!!!

    Why are you asking what is cool? If you need to ask, then you must not know what cool is... So it's your car do what you want (although I may not think it's cool), you uncool bastard...

    you uncool bastard that made my day brother. What I really want is the HAMB shifter, I hope I`m cool enough to ever see another run of these. Untill than I`ll stick to my Lokar mushroom head, thanks for the input guys. Beer taps NO. Microphones YES.

    Are you going to ask this crowd what your lady should look like also? Quit worrying about what The"HAMB" thinks you should like. Do what suites you . My taste have changed or evolved over the years.

    If you want to know what's cool, it's something that is the NEW gimmick (for about 10 seconds), something that shows craftsmanship and style, or here on a trad site, something seen on at least a couple magazine cars from the pre-65 era.
    Find 5 mag pics of beer shifters, and look at the cars. If they are something that you would still want to own today, print out the pics and you have a legal case for them.
    BTW, carrying around a bunch of old pics to argue that something is cool is LAME!
     
  18. The first time you see one, maybe it looked cool, but like the beer can cover ignition coil, after you see a couple of them then no, not cool anymore, overdone.
     
  19. A wine skin would be traditional...:D
     
  20. I'll tell ya' what would be cool.

    It would be cool if the Mods came around and killed this ridiculously pointless thread.

    Sorry man but somebody had to say it.
