Re: December feature car ...... COPO PETE's Nova
Pete, Does your Nova have the Hurst Shifter? According to my research, Chevy was TIGHT with the Hurst Shifters but Yenko did get them to install them in the Deuce. No Novas or Chevelles got a Hurst from the factory (except Deuce) and Camaro only got them from 69 to 71. Chevy used the Muncie frame mount shifter or the ITM (Inland Tool & Manufacturing) shifter. The ITM looks a lot like a round handle Hurst shifter. As a matter of fact, the round handle Hurst looks more like an ITM shifter then the after market Comp Plus Hurst with the bolt on flat stock shift arm. Makes me wonder if ITM really made the round handle Hurst shifters and just put the Hurst name on them.
