Re: Shifter Options
I had a Lokar in my '62, so maybe it was the 500+hp, but that push button would rattle like crazy going down the road, which drove me crazy. Had to drive around holding the shifter with my thumb on the button just so it wouldn't rattle. Went with a Gennie in the '48...I really like the way it gates through the gears much like a column shifter and NO button.
Anyway, just something to consider. Although it sounds like with the need to haul 2 kids around converting to a column shifter would be the way to go though...
