I got a Hurst Indy Shift for mine from Summit. Don't forget to order a boot, as that (least with the Hurst) is not part of the kit. It runs about the same as the cheaper brands. I like mine a whole lot more that the tree shifter.

The center folds down into an armrest, or you can flip everything up for a storage compartment. I can post a couple more pics if johnny outdoors doesn't mind since it is his thread on shifters.

Back in the sixties we would use the Hurst, it was the only one available. You can also swap the linkage around and make it shift backwards, we liked playing mind games. Pattern was
