Inland Shifter Identification Help

[scatpackbee]

Hello Fellow FABO’ers,

A friend asked me to help identify a shifter he’s had in garage for many years.

I’m not that versed on Inland shifters.

Can anyone please tell me if this is a four speed shifter and if it’s for a console or non console car?

It looks like it doesn’t have the correct shifter knob and the plate that mounts to the transmission is missing too.

Thank you!

Definitely an Inland. Let me go find my '66 Satellite HP2 thread on fbbo. I'd say it's non-console.

This is a console handle...

Geez those things were garbage. If it were a Hurst it would still be in the car and working after 57 years.

Great thread Wayne!

Mine sure does look like a non-console shifter handle compared to the bends on your console handle.

@dadsbee is right on as usual. Inland 4 speed shifter for no console.

They're sloppy compared to a Hurst... but considering my HP2 is a 10,000 mile car I can live with it. Only thing that I actually don't like about the shifter is the reach compared to my non-console Bee.

Imagine this. In GM cars, the inland shifter mounted on THE CROSS MEMBER. Can you imagine the complete disconnect THERE? LOL

Even a bigger piece of poop there.

For a 10,000 mile original it would be a must have.

I was lucky someone put a Hurst in my 66. I won't change it back. Brewer does have conversions available. Use the Inland stick with a Hurst shifter. Brewer's Performance - Mopar A833 4-Speed Transmission and Component Specialists

I thought it would be cool to put in my early ‘68 Barracuda which would have had that shifter handle from the factory but I’ve got a console and a NOS Hurst console shifter handle in there now. So forget it…

Well, believe it or don't, but a LOT of Chevy guys fight each other over original Inland shifters. I actually want to be able to DRIVE my cars. lol

 

[RustyRatRod]

The Inland shifters for our Mopars are not bad at ALL compared to the GM pieces. If you've ever driven one, you know what I'm talking about. lol

You could power shift into second but shifting into 3rd was like a yard stick in a 5 gallon bucket.

That's how finding any gear is in the GM ones. lol

Im sure Im not the only one who doesn't know why.....
But why is it called an "inland" shifter?? Is that a generic term? Or was that a brand name??
TIA, Lefty71

Sounds pretty awesome!

Shifts pretty good too.

I’ll keep a eye out for you on 93.

Does somebody know the ball thread of an Inland shifter?

I would like to add a white Hurst style ball onto my '66 Inland shifter, but are they compatible?

It's big. Look at the pics on thread 21. It's a hollow tube and not a solid shaft or rectangular stock like the Hurst sticks are.
