Default Re: Muncie linkage rebuild

Gents..........

Unlike the High-Perf 69 Camaros, none of the Chevelles or Novas received a factory Hurst during that era. They were all the crappy 'bolt to the cross member' shifters we all love to hate.

Sam's Chevelle shifter is different from Camaro as follows:

1. The handle is removable with two bolts.
2. At least 2 different handles were available, depending upon bench or bucket seats.
3. Chevelle used a stabilzer rod bolted to the x-member.
4. The support rod from the shifter body to tranny is much thicker and of a different configuration.
5. The reverse lock-out assembly has a coil spring rather then a heat treated wrap spring as Camaro.
6. None of the linkage is interchangeable.

And the list goes on...............

MacNeish, Rich's First Generation and many others have bought restored shifters and/or parts from me.

Good luck with the shifter Sam.
