Default C5 Auto Needed for Hurst

Hurst is looking for a car in the So.cal (San Fernando Valley) Area to use briefly for console inspection. They are creating a new Comp Stick automatic shifter assembly for the C5. Anyone local please give Hurst a call @ 818 882 6422 and ask for Rigo. Once the unit is designed you will get a free shifter assembly for your time and vehicle use. They will onyl need the car for about an hour!...

Not to hijack the thread, but I wish they'd make an automatic shifter for the 4th gen Camaro/Firebirds....


(I don't mean a "universal" piece)

Amazing, isn't it, that Jegs/Summit Racing still list an "exact fit" automatic shifter in their catalogs (by B&M) for the '70-'81 Camaro/Firebirds, cars that were last "new" 30 years ago, yet nobody makes an equivalent for the '93-02 cars.....

I had one of those B&M Console Megashifters in my 2nd gen Firebird and loved it.
