Which shifter knob is correct for 1965 Dart 4-sp Hurst?

[Stumpy]

I’ve seen both plain black and white knobs on 65 A833 cars. At first I thought if it had the chrome floor bezel with the shift pattern it got the plain black until I saw an advertisement or service document somewhere with the bezel and white knob with the shift pattern. Did the colors change with interior color or was it whatever Bob the shifter guy grabbed out of his supply box?

That's a good question. I'd say use the one you like the best. I am unaware of any rhyme or reason. That said, I think the white one kinda stands out better. I like it.

I do what You did... I have Both, I switch back and forth. Who really Cares (but You)

My 64 Barracuda, 273, 2 barrel, Hurst, 4 speed, without console was white. Same gold interior.

My Dad's '64 Dart which is mostly original and un messed with on the interior had a white one from the factory it seems.
Car has not been really exposed to humans or the outside since 1972.

Cars with console w/shift pattern has a black knob. Cars without console has white knob w/shift pattern.

Cars with console w/shift pattern has a black knob. Cars without console has white knob w/shift pattern.

And then there’s this.

 

[65dartcharger]

On the mannual transmission it's wrong. They didn't add a shifting knob w/pattern if you already had it on the console.

my 64 cuda has this knob

if you're running a 3/4 race cam the chrome skull with ruby eyes is standard equipment.
