Shifter looks sweet..I have alot of fond memories of yankin' on one of them, my buddy, Rich, bought a '71 Cuda 440, 4 speed back in '73 and since he liked drinkin' more then drivin' I drove it along with a list of others who did nothing more then send it to an early grave. I saw the car in the 90's still sittin in the same place it died sometime in '74 or '75...Rich was long gone and whoever had posession of the car at that point was not willing to let it go. I checked on it last year though and it's gone now. I'm willing to bet when BJ started on TV this person started thinking about what was sitting there. 440, 4 speed, shaker hood...sittin since 75, rotted to hell, not sure if it's the original motor but should still be worth, oh I don't know, maybe,
$ 25,000 as is....sure why not if you restored it it may be worth $ ????..
Sorry for the rant, nice shifter....

those 71-up Bbody (without console) shifters look so much nicer than the E body shifters some people use. They look like they were made for A bodies.
