Should make the handle color match your interior. Its way too clashing!

I had this one laying around , I looked at a few online and it shows them to be 7" tall this one is only 4"
plus the shifter threads are 9/16"-20 so you still have to drill , tap , & counterbore for reverse lever pocket

It's gonna get a re-coat , silver or black have;nt decided yet

The one I have is 4" just the black handle. Bought it from a forum member years ago. Got a couple white ***** and a t-handle shifter I've been carrying around from my 1967 firebird 400.

I'll never forget going for a ride in a 1970 Coronet R/T Hemi with a pistol grip shifter, the throw on that B body handle was about 8" long from gear to gear. Another car from my youth I should have bought
