Vice Grips.



Seriously, improvise until you can replace it with one for our apps. 67-72 vendors sell them.

A shifter lever from a non-tilt van from the '70s should work, although the end of the shifter lever with the flats on it that slides into the column comes in two thicknesses. If you are able to find a '70s van with a non-tilt column, you might want to grab the upper column housing that the lever attaches to just in case.
