A snake,

From the pictures of Als car it looks as if he is running a 4 speed transmission. Are you using a 5 speed top loader in yours ? If so it may be hard to find a shifter lever that will bolt on and give you that 1964-65 backwards look. On the four speed he reversed the shifter lever because in the stock configuration it was almost impossible to shift to 2nd and 4th because of clearance between the shifter and fire extinguiser mounted between the seats. I am sure there must be some places that make a shifter like that to adapt to the 5 speeds byt don't know who they are. None of my parts books shows any.
