I received this PM today about the shifter boot that I have for sale:

“Hi Kurt,
Just read your ad for the shifter and boot.
I have here, 3, what I believe to be oem boots, 1 of which is a survivor out of a car that hasn't seen duty since '74. All of them have 5 ribs. Not sure where this info. started about the 3 rib version. I've never seen one.
I'm fairly confident all 3 are assembly line versions but anything's possible.
It's highly possible chevy had more than 1 supplier of these boots which may shed some light also.”

On a side note, I know I have seen the 3 rib and have been told that it is the correct one but I still want to share the Pam above just for conversation and possibly another scenario.

Kurt
