Default Opinions on this shift ****.. and a question..

Found this shift **** online.. its solid billet aluminum that has been powder paintied a "candy apple" red (looks annodized). I think it would look good in my car since I have a "little" polish and red annodizing in the engine area <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

<img src="http://members.aol.com/steven0932/****.jpg" alt=" - " />

This would be more for shows and such. I would use my leather SLP **** for racing and cruising..

Now for the question.. does anyone here know "for sure" what our thread specs are??

Thanks

I dont run it anymore as it was too long for my tastes. I run a leather **** now.

This would be more of a show know and I think it would tie in with my engine bay nicely (and add a little visual interest to my interior)..

If you have red inside your car already it would blend in great. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I personally don't care for it in the pic, but I might think differently once I saw it installed in your car. (Since I've loved absolutely everything you've done so far!) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
It is fun though to change out **** from time to time for a different feel. I use my leather SLP **** most of the time, but also have an SS billet **** that I throw on for shows & such.

I guess I'll have to be the first one with a dissenting vote. IMO, it doesn't match anything in the interior of your car. The one in the pic of your interior looks better.

another no vote...

it just doesnt fit w/ what you've got on the inside, imo.

But hey, Steve, you've done some kickass **** so far, so if ya wanna do it, go right ahead.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> MOMO

Dude, remember my Hurst shifter? Chrome stem with Hurst logo and a '69 chrome shift ball... That would be absolutely perfect in your car.

Sorry Steve, but I gotta say that red/polished **** looks like total ***. Eeewww!

my vote --> <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

Keep the one that matches the interior <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Blingmeister don't do it man, it looks like something out of a bad 70s movie. <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

I also like a **** that matches the interior, I have the 2003 cobra **** on a 2003 cobra pro 5.0 stick. It looks killer, short and matches the interior.

I believe the stock thread size is 12x1.75
