    Let's see those Gear Shift Knobs

     



    I'm currently building a 1936 Chevy 2 Dr. Town Sedan Street Rod. I'm far from the point of finishing touches but have done some things out of a normal build order on this car. For instance: I already have my steering wheel which is a banjo wheel with Birdseye Maple woodgrain. I sent out my window moldings and got them also painted birdseye maple.

    So... While I'm doing the Birdseye Maple, I decided to get some Birdseye Maple wood and have a friend turn it into a custom gear shift knob. I'm using the Lokar Adapter to attach it to my shifter. (when I get the knob back, I'll post a picture).

    This made me want to see what others have for their shift knobs. I need to get inspired by some neat designs.

    Thanks,
    Jerome

    Funny...
    While doing some research about gear Shift Knobs, I stumbled across one that costs $150,000.00. It is a diamond encrusted Bentley knob.
    I think I'll pass on that one.
