Quite proud of this one . Short shifter meets period tram handle..



it was stupendous and was so reliable in service it completely overwhelmed the engine

Yeah, looks like that gearstick (and the aperture) took some precision measuring

The aperture was made large to facilitate weekend box changes to allow me to go sprinting

I'm mightyly impressed with those 'Top Gun' switches, Griffie OE aren't they ?

If I was doing them again I would put them some where else. The flip tops are easy to knock on certain gearshifts.. First time out I wondered what happened to the engine then realised I had knocked the ignition off
Then 8 laps later knocked something else off but thats another story
