Default Automatic shifters

Here's mine....



Yeah, I know, that LOOKS like a 289 Cobra 4-speed shifter - well, I guess it SHOULD, because that's what it IS. I grafted a 289 Cobra 4-speed shift lever onto my C-4 shift lever. Even the reverse lock-out works. I put a slight "bend" to the left in it, so when the C4 is in "Park" the shifter appears to be in the position of "Reverse" for a Ford 4-speed.

Here's what it looks like under the tunnel:



I mounted the shifter bracket to the tranny, so it even "shakes" like a stick-shift shifter. The boot comes up high enough that I did not even bother to have the shifter handle re-plated after all the heating, bending, and welding.
