Hello Roadsters, does anyone have a good site to purchase a 7/16 shifter ball? Also, if you have some creative shifters please send pictures.

Thank you,

Not real creative or original, but I like it and it's very comfortable.
MGW short-throw shifter in a mid-shift location. I'll have to look-up where I ordered the ball from.

I bought about 6 from Summit racing. I bought a blue with white stripe, a ford racing logo, a solid yellow, a solid white, a white with blue stripes, and a solid red. I ended up using the solid red- it looks great, and really sets off the interior. They were about 15 bucks each, and I wanted to make sure I had choices

Our Roadster has a period look correct four-speed T-lockout shifter with knob. It bolts right onto the standard T-5/TKO/600 shifter base and gives a more curved/correct look and feel to the shifter/interior. The reverse lockout T even moves up and down with your fingers!

I got everything from our vendor ********** Accessories!

We finished it off with one of Mike Everson's nice shift boots, keeping the FFR boot as a heat/weather seal under it.

Hi Chris, I looked on Summit but I did not see a red for a 5-speed. Can you help me out?

I got my shifter ball from Speeddawg.com. They have lots of styles and lots of sizes. Quite a bit more than $15 each, though.

I got the burgundy/white rally stripe ball and it matches my paint scheme perfectly.

Check this out from Finish Line. I just bought the billet aluminum one with the Cobra Snake insert. Very sweet!

ksamson -- here is the exact one I used, there are different thread sizes depending on what you have in the car.

Here is a photo of it in the car with my son at the wheel. You will see that I also bought a Forte stick, which was 6 inches long.20721

They made one for one of my motorcycles when I switched to jockey shift
