I looked for an Art Carr shifter for about 3-years. Only one I saw was on "the Bay". Think it went for about 600.00. The new guy I talked to at Carr had never seen one. They are really neat but had no park lever. Just broke down and made my own floor mounted pod with ****ons from a '64 New Yorker.
Hey Gene, I am the one that bought the Nifty Shifter off of eBay, I actually got two of them from him, one is still missing a few pieces, working to complete it now. I need a couple ****ons, #1, and #2 ****ons. Greg
Bit of a twist on this subject...hope nobody minds Wondering if anyone has adapted the push****on shifter to an overdrive Chrysler transmission?
ask bob harrop about missing a shift with a push ****on shifter. that's how his flying carpet awb car crashed. hitting reverse instead of neutral after a p*** causes bad things to happen. art carr had a post that mounted to the floor. the post had a curve to it that held the shift pod above the seat. they are hard to find. b and m had a cool shifter called a series 60 also hard to find.
WOW...can't believe I am just seeing this. Cool that you got the shifters. Will try to post a picture of what I made for mine. Gene.
Just an addition to this thread. The '63/64 Darts and Valiants had the shifter ****ons stacked with reverse at the top and 1-low at the bottom. I'd think this could be mounted in a small floor mounted box without too much work. Nice thing about the '62 up push****ons were the slide lever for engaging park. Earlier push****on transmissions had the park brake drum on the tail shaft and no park pawl in the transmission. -Dave
