I'm surprised you didn't know about them. they came in the hurst.olds, W-30's and the GTO Judges from the factory. it was THE performance auto shifter of the 60's-70's.

Cuz it's our car, to mod or change whatever we like.
I'm thinking about doing some interior paint, keeping the stock colored vents and door panels, but swapping them out for something else, probably white.
At least then If I go to sell the car I still have the originals and can pop them right back in.

it works fine in the Alero. But I had to do a custom Fab job to get it to work.

oldsgt... how did you get the boot to stay up, under the shifter?
i get how the bottom is mounted... just not the top.
also... does that knob button work? i've used one like that in a solstice, and i didn't quite figure out how it would push the center white piston down, in order to shift....
i'd love to have a shifter like that.
