Here's one that was in my '68.

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

thank you Patrick for that pic .... I found them reproduced on Classic Industries and im not sure if this is an original column or indicator

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

Interesting. I'm surprised there's enough demand for them.

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

have this piece I purchased years ago from someone on the board I hope I can make it work the tape on the ends is just holding the original screws in...Im thinking the lens will fit not sure wether the rest will line up ill check that tomorrow

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

That's the same style of metal housing that was on my truck

I know the feeling. My project truck is outside right now, and it has been raining for the last few days.

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

That indicator is not even close. No Powerglide shift indicator ever said "L2". If you look at the column, you can count the detents. Five detents (PRND21) means it ain't a Powerglide, which is (PRNDL).

I took ownership on this beauty about two weeks ago (Grand Theft Auto)
YES SIR on the not even close ! I ordered the correct lens ... Patrick so kindly verify for me sending that picture. Im hoping it fits in the chrome housing I have and on the column ..like I said Im not sure if the column is original to the truck either... you might know looking at the picture ?

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

It took me about 4 readings of the thread to figure out you were thinking of ordering just the lens and changing it out in the metal holder you have on hand. Does the shifter work OK and go into the gears properly and all you are lacking is the correct lens?

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

Yes sir sorry I made it so confusing …. But yes it’s the lens only the column shift works properly

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

I would bet the new lens will fit. If not, it seems like a new one could be fabricated.

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

L1 L2 D are on a three speed hydromatic. If it does have a powerglide you need the indicator that PHMorland showed.

Still unless you are planning on an anal to the letters on the spid restoration you will need the indicator for the transmission that will be in the truck when you go to drive it.

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

ok let me try to make this clear as mud the truck has a power glide in it and it came with this indicator FIRST PICTURE wrong for a PGlide

today I installed the one I had on hand SECOND PICTURE with the Park R N D L2 L1 lens in it. the chrome metal housing that will hold the same Lens

THIRD PICTURE Park R N D L the picture that Patrick sent me correct for a PGlide

I ordered a new repop one that hasn't arrived yet but when it does I will take the wrong lens Park R N D L2 L1 out it will fit the new correct one in that chrome metal housing and that problem will be addressed and solved I HOPE:lol:

Re: Power glide shift indicator
 

and if that isn't clear here is another issue the indicator(pointer docent match the chrome metal housing I installed
so with a little research looks like the setup that was on the column is a 71-72 non tilt for a 3 speed auto trans and what I need 67-70 power glide set up are repoped and I have them on order
thanks for the input and help everyone
