Help Identifying T-handle Shifter
Hello,
Newbie here!
Can anyone help identify the T-Handle shifter?
I can't seem to post an image. Can someone here help me?
I know they were made in the 60's and came in other colors; blue, red, yellow...etc.
All were rubber coated in metal-flake.
Thanks,
Tiberius

Dude!! You posted this on Rodding Roundtable, and two of us already ID'd it for you.It's a Cal Custom item that was designed for the VW, Dunebuggy market sometime in the 60's or 70's.
Not sure what more you need to know????????????

Here, in case you didn't see the posts over there...............
Yeah, I do sort of remember those, think they were '60's era. Cal Custom comes to mind.
The more I think about it, I sort of feel these were kind of made for the VW market.

and a second person responded,
They were made by Cal Custom, and marketed for VWs and dune buggies.
