might be the winners of the Hurst Nova for the Hurst name the shifter contest
Looks like "name the shifter contest" is on the quarter panel

They call it a 3 speed stick automatic

It became known as the Hurst Auto Stick and was made as a bench seat floor conversion shifter using a rod not a cable.

Also used by Yenko in the Deuce auto trans cars
some were even installed by Hurst

I had a hat like that (in yellow and black).

I know I had it up through high school, when one of my buddies grabbed it off my head and jumped in the swimming pool. I don't think it got saved after that.
