Knob needed !

[c pryor]

No, im not being crude (for a change !!!), does anyone have an original type gear stick top, black plastic type with the gearchange pattern marked on top as supplied on the wedges from new ?

[Richybaby]

I think I have one, but why would you want such a thing!

I have one somewhere..
And an original black /leather steering wheel (and adaptor boss) for the later Ford columned cars

Great, will give you a few quid (plus p&p) for it, it will look a whole lot better than what is sitting on my stick at the moment !!!!!!

[andymadmak]

I'll have a go at finding it this weekend.. It's in the loft..... Wish me luck!

Thanks Andy !

[Richybaby]

I'll have a look too, you'll be spoilt for choice now, Cheers.

Thanks, will buy both, best one goes into car, will nicely complete the interior of my 390. If anyone could pop into their loft and find the 275 bhp for the engine i'll have that too !!!!!

If you can pursuade BoostedLS1 on here (Mike) to sympathetically rebuild your engine to the "correct" TVR spec then you might get close - worked for me!

Sorry C Pryor. Despite extensive furklings in my loft over the weekend I have been unable to track down the knob in question.

Thanks for looking, let me know if you do find it, will e-mail you my mobile number. regards, Colin

Sorry can't find my knob! 280i gear knob that is, I can find my old 450SE gear knob but that's a five speed and the reverse is in the wrong place if you've got a four speed box, prob ok if you've got a five speed box, your welcome if you want it, cheers Rich..

[c pryor]

Thats great, will e-mail details, cheers.

If you are in a hurry and want to spend cash, think I saw that rimmers have them on their website under rover sd1 stuff. Or visit a scrapyard with sd1s (must be possible in the UK, on the continent it is even difficult to find one there).

Colin, have posted gear knob, no need for any funds, hardly anything to post, just wasting away in my garage, glad to see it going to a good home.
Cheers, Rich.

Thanks Rich!! is coming to a good home ( the interior of my 390) fully authentic with smells of damp, petrol, etc !! Cheers, Colin
