Looking for shift pointer

Just upgraded to Blue so now I can ask.
I'm wanting a shift pointer for a 68.
Anyone ?

Re: Looking for shift pointer

Hello 8 Door,
where do you live at? I have two or three I believe. I will have to search for them and there is one still on my old column.

Re: Looking for shift pointer

I'm finding out , there are three different shapes of pointers
or also called shift indicators.
This is the one from my project,note the attachment hole is broken.

Re: Looking for shift pointer

Hello,
Hope your Saturday is well. I tore up the Garage and found what I could. This style of pointer 67-70 is old and brittle, so the one I am showing first is one I repaired. I install a layer of ITV on the sides of this style to help it stay attached when installed on my trucks. It is something I like to do to strengthin it. I pulled it off the column and took some pictures. It is a dark gray. Here are some pics of it on and off the column.

Re: Looking for shift pointer

Here is a second set of pics with the other style pointer from 71-72. I put the 67-70 pointer down with them for the pics. These style pointers are in great shape and I have the wire hook up for one of them.

Re: Looking for shift pointer

I have one more, but it is broken at the screw end like yours and I haven't repaired it yet out of my 68. I had seen the other gentleman has a really nice one to offer, so that one sounds like the best bet. Again this style from 67-70are old and fragile. If you decide you may be interested in mine I am willing to trade for your old one, because I will fix it and reuse it. I am an original parts type guy. One more thing, I am not trying to kill anyones deal, but I found these brand new in the LMC catalog too and I am sure that some of the board vendors will have some of this style. The 71-72 has been reproduced now for a while and now finally it looks like this style 67-70 is getting redone also. Either way, good luck on your search. I searched ten yaers before I even found a good used one.
