Re: Muncie linkage rebuild
Gents..........
Unlike the High-Perf 69 Camaros, none of the Chevelles or Novas received a factory Hurst during that era. They were all the crappy 'bolt to the cross member' shifters we all love to hate. Sam's Chevelle shifter is different from Camaro as follows: 1. The handle is removable with two bolts. 2. At least 2 different handles were available, depending upon bench or bucket seats. 3. Chevelle used a stabilzer rod bolted to the x-member. 4. The support rod from the shifter body to tranny is much thicker and of a different configuration. 5. The reverse lock-out assembly has a coil spring rather then a heat treated wrap spring as Camaro. 6. None of the linkage is interchangeable. And the list goes on............... MacNeish, Rich's First Generation and many others have bought restored shifters and/or parts from me. Good luck with the shifter Sam. |

Would this Ray feller happen to have the correct *clips* that go on the linkage? You know, the old kind that actually work, not the new kind that just piss you off? [/ QUOTE ] Rob - I've got a few extra 'clips'. GM NOS in black Zinc Phosphate. Email me if your interested. |
Re: Muncie linkage rebuild
Thanks guys. Was out for most of afternoon and evening. Good info. Craig, do you offer the rebuild kits and/or do you rebuild? BTW, mine is the big hook separate Muncie handle for bench seat. Car shifts a tad better with the reverse lock out bar removed, but still unacceptable. Will sometimes select 2 gears simultaneously, very dangerous for self-destruct!

Re: Muncie linkage rebuild
Sam,
If this is for that crummy old Dusk blue Chevelle you could just solve the problem by selling the car to me https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif |
