super shifter 3 ram rods ??

Very interesting thread, I learned something new. I had never seen the threaded linkage rod connections before as well as the push down to shift into reverse deal. I have a real early super shifter that doesn't have to be pushed down for reverse and typical clip on linkage rod connections. It does have the straight reinforced linkage rods and a tall mounting plate that raises the height of the shifter itself. I got this setup used in 1971 when it was about a year old.
