auto and stick shifter handles the same??
'67 column 3 speed in my truck. Found the shifter handle I need on an automatic column in a '68. Same?

Re: auto and stick shifter handles the same??
According to Lmctruck.com catalog page 141 the answer is yes
Part number 34-0714 $20 But If you actually are trying to match to a 1969 (remember sometimes you might have a 1968 that is actually a 1968.5 - if so then no). The $20 seems reasonable because that shift lever part would be hard to fab. I do recommend getting the little nylon or polymer bushing that snaps over the ball end of the shift lever - without it you'll have sloppy shifter syndrome. I think I found the little bushing at Truck Shop in I think Orange County Ca - they sell the repro gauge panels. |

Just saw this page in truckshop.com catalog.. looks like they are trying to show how the '69 version of the shift lever differs though I cannot tell from the photo if that shift lever tip is convex or concave.
But the answer to your original question appears to still be yes. Photo attached |

I bought a repop lever from a nearby vendor and actually had to open the hole up in the shift tube so the ball tip would go in. They may vary a little.
