'The car is for sale at the upcoming Mecum Auction in Monterey for something around a hundred grand, give or take'

I sincerely hope that's Kenyan Shillings or equivalent...

Think he means the gear lever?

Well I did wonder, but that's a bit obvious surely as it's only a linkage that could move reasonably easily I guess, seeing as it's a Porsche gearbox that's used on Ultimas and the like, where they have a door cill mounted shifter.

'GASH' is the only word I can come up with.

No I meant the gearbox...

The gear lever/ handbrake seems to be moved to the right hand side, it's a cable linkage to the gearbox so presumably they've found some way of routing that but I wonder what that does to quality of the shifting.

Obviously the gearbox is between the rear seats but I'd have thought it extends too far forward to get the seat between there and the steering column.

I doubt at 6' 1" I'd be able to fit comfortably in that.

Fair play to them if they'd made it work.
