How did they build the guts of the Liberty ?? Can you tell us an "approximate" price ?

<font color="blue">The thing will shift ANY GEAR at ANY RPM.
![]() The Liberty was built from a Chrysler Hemi box, then done clutchless. You have to get used to either shifting fast all the time, (good practice), or double clutching & forget about downshifting, between the clutchless & the V-Gate, it's a mission. So ... ![]() (cost was $1500 + the transmission)

Are the guts basically just "slick shifted", or more of a Jericho type thing?

[ QUOTE ]
It would be interesting to hear some personal preferences on the classic white Hurst ball vs. the Hurst T-handle. I love the look of the white ball, but when it comes to driving, something just feels right about that T-handle in your right hand. I'm kinda torn on which to use. Be great to hear some other opinions. Thanks. [/ QUOTE ] I think you answered your own question: The T-handle will always "feel" like it shifts better (and it probably does)but the white ball (and a nice,patina'd one,not a shiny white one)is the CLASSIC look for all hurst-equipped performance Chevrolets. ![]()
