different shifter knob LOOK

[ray m]

I collect antique beer memorabelia. I've got an old schlitz beer ball tap knob on my 240 manual. This is a nice one. They can be adapted with a little time. There are some really great ons offered on ebay. RAY M

in my dream VW I will have a tall shifter with a dummy grenade for the handle...

True story; I worked in a nuclear power plant where the operators had installed different beer tap handles on the control room levers for the control rods. They really liked it because it made them easy to identify (which sorta made sense). They were installed for many years until a new VP showed up and was not amused.

Very Nice Indeed.

Thanks for the praise guys. Yes its a grill emblem. I probably spent about 6-8 hours on this thing just trying to get it perfect. The thing that took the most time was making the badge look right. If you look close, you'll see that I removed the raised portions on the star that separate the three portions. Anyway, too much work to make more than one. I guess I could just use the oem look...

You did a great job on the knob Bajaman. That could make a cool DIY project kit to sell on eBay, along with a photo instructional sheet. I wish I had a lathe, I could see a more cone shaped knob being used too.
