Pictures of my (custom) shiftknob!
 
Hi,
My dad (the machinist) finally made the knob. It's a 4" tall and 1.5" thick slug! It feels real good to shift with.

I took a few pics using my (cheesy) webcam, but you can see what it looks like. Seeing how it gets real cold (it's a solid aluminum piece, with a steel thread piece), I found a foam/rubber material from a mini gardening shovel handle and it fit perfectly (and it's got a good grip too). I'm gonna find a way to get it painted yellow real soon.

Here's the URL (warning, about 5 pictures, each about 55KB) http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...rd/biggrin.gif :

the worlds first battery operated shifter knob!!!!

Gautam 03-02-2001 05:49 PM

Hi,
Haha, I figured some of you with sick minds would say something dirty! http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...rd/biggrin.gif

When my dad showed it to me, that's what popped into my head. I didn't realize how vulgar those pics were until I saw them. The rubber cover added to its vulgarity. Oh well, the shifter looks a bit better in the car. Hopefully these dirty thoughts won't be in my head when I'm driving! http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...rd/biggrin.gif

Hmm...I better take those pics off soon, cuz I had no idea what some of you might think. I think the way I'm 'holding' the knob makes it look a bit sick/disturbing. Ok, the pics are coming down! If ya wanna see them, you'll have to ask me! http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...rd/biggrin.gif

You don't realize how humilated I feel with those stupid pictures! http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/frown.gif


Bye!

Gautam 03-04-2001 08:08 AM

If it won't shift right do you just stroke it a little? Sorry, just had to ask. Have you had your girlfriend in the car yet? What does she think? I bet she likes it a lot better than the T handle you had. ;-) LOL Sorry to give you so much crap man. You have to admit that thing is funny.

Hey Quantum, I see you really lowered your ET. That is a good time. Sure beats low to mid 15's, eh?

Hey gautam, that shifter is too funny, hope it fits well in your...er...hand, j/k, it's good that we can all have a freindly laugh (or two, or five http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/wink.gif)

You know, your dad could be selling a lot of these "shifts" in a porn site. Let's call this thing "mustang daddy".
