Re: M22 in 68 c10
Cool to see and know exactly what you did there. Very helpful.
To better describe what I MAY (maybe not) do for a shifter, is use the Hurst shifter but fabricate a different lever to look similar to a truck 4spd/transfer case style shifter, then chrome plate. I have a Corvair 95 4spd shift knob, which has proper pattern, and it the same knob used in trucks for 4spd/transfer cases. That would really look factory. It depends on the rest of the build. And since that will not be hiding the added performance features of the era, I think a Hurst shift lever/knob would be most fitting. Maybe I'll do another truck to look factory and do my other idea. I have a collection of 4spd Muncies and Saginaws. Options options....
