Re: Shifter nobs
take a piece of flatstock and cut out a shape that you like weld a piece of threaded rod for the handle or ball drill a couple of hole to mount it to the shifter assy
optional is painting powdercoating or chromeing it

Re: Shifter nobs
Look for a late 60's Mopar if you're looking for pistol grip shifter.Be sitting down and very relaxed when you ask the price.You may need a paramedic if it's an original.

Re: Shifter nobs
I did this for my four wheel drive, find someone that runs a CNC machine, and have them engrave your shift pattern, this is a piston from a 5hp briggs motor, your options are endless with pistons. One from an air compressor would probably work nice.
Sorry for the fuzzy picture...
