Original 67 Automatic shift lever ("T") handle
« on: December 14, 2014, 06:09:33 PM »
Looking for a nice, original 67 Automatic shift lever ("T") handle... I assume these are the same with or without a console, but just in case, I have a console. I have the std interior, thus I think the handle is chrome with two black buttons (vs the leather-wrapped version for DLX interior). Please let me know if you have one of these you are willing to part with. Thank you.

Just an FYI:
1967-69 standard (non-deluxe) chrome T shifter handles are slimmer in design than the 1970-72 OEM and 1967-73 Drake reproduction.

My observations on the true 1967 chrome handle has them with sharp edged black buttons. 1968 and newer shifters had their black buttons rounded off.

I have one.  Do you need just the knob or also the lever or even the whole assembly including the box that mounts to the floor?

I'm still looking for this part if anyone has one they are willing to part with. I just need the handle but am willing to buy the entire assembly if that's how you prefer to sell it.
