New Shifter Ball finished
Yeah another boast post 
I'll try to do something important soon...
parking brake turned out well so the black plastic shift ball looked kinda plain...
As luck would have it, lots of walnut around and some aluminum bar stock
Roughed out
A little buffing
Installed (color looks off but it's from the flash. Same wood and stain as the other pieces, a little darker since there's a lot of end grain)
Hopefully done with the wood trim for awhile
Now to work on the seat slider covers

That makes me wish I had access to a metal lathe!

LOL, there's at least 5 changes in that last pic, (plus one addition) so only 1268 to go
Luckily there isn't actually that much plastic in these interiors when it comes right down to it. Someone suggested the small vent ***** but
that tiny slot would be a major piaM

Man you are the old Yankee workshop of C-3's.
Nice work I'm impressed.
It looks one off.
Yet it looks like it belongs there.
