Shifter memories.Good and bad.

I had Hurst Mystery Shifter in my '62 Bel Air with a built 301. Biggest piece of junk ever made.

 

My first car was a 56 Ford auto. I put a 3 speed in it and had to have a floor shift.I got a cheapy from J.C. Whitney or Warshawsky. It had a round screw in handle. Everytime I tried to shift hard from 1st to 2nd the shifter would loosen up, spin around an crack my knuckles on the dash. Ahh. the good ole days.

 

My 57 chevy ragtop han a SHIFTSTAR floorshift in it when I bought it (1968 or so) nice tight pattern felt real solid,good as any hurst I`ve ever used.
