One of Tommy Powell's latest shifter knob art pieces
I can't afford his art work, but, I can still support him by showcasing his cool stuff for all of you, so, maybe someone sees this and becomes a new customer of his. That's my part. I'm very glad to do it
This one is going to be auctioned this weekend,... and you can buy it with the highest bid.

Ever hear of the one year only 1970 foam grip on a Hurst shifter?

And I can't find anything online about it.

GMC has a new type of gear selector in the 2018 Terrain, right after Ezra Dyer did an article on why new shifters are stupid wastes of time

Ezra:
Let’s say a designer comes to me and says, “We’re thinking about this new idea for a shifter.”
I’ll say: “Stop right there. It’s stupid.”
The shifter is a solved problem. Enough with the novel shifters.
But this designer just has to explain how the dowdy shifter is about to become sexy, modern, and so very it. TMZ will hound this shifter. This shifter will have 2.7 million followers on social media. If this shifter were a hotel, it would have no front desk and you’d check in through Snap, and maybe the elevator would be, like, hidden in a tree that you climb inside like an elf.

half track levers and what they were for
As they stick up in the air, the leftmost lever is for the PTO winch, and the lever being painted to its right (which bends around the parking brake) is the shifter for the 4 speed transmission. Next is the parking brake and on the other side of the transmission the lever to the left operates the High/Low transfer case which, when combined with the the 4 speed transmission, gave you 8 speeds forward and two in reverse. The last lever on the far right is to engage the front wheel drive.
