For all of the people (including me) that couldn't wait for this forum to be created there sure isn't a lot of info or pictures on here yet. There has to be build pictures even for the clones.

Fully agree...
So here are pics of the shifter I´m going to use.
When I realized no shifter boot was on the car when delivered, I started looking for a shifter as described in the SS Guide. One that had a welded then plated handel. I than found out (1968 car magazine pic), handel was straight, not offset.
Housing I have painted black, also as mentioned in the Guide. Black simply (I think) because no boot was used, and it looked better. Reason no boot was used may have been it did not fit well over the Reverse Lock Out bracket and rod.



Recommended replacement handel, has HURST higher up on the handel, closer to the knob...


Now I am anxious to test this shifter and a correct shifter adapter plate...
