Morning Everyone,
 
Does anybody know if there is a vendor that makes aftermarket white shiftknobs for our stock 4-speed shifter handles? You know, the kind that have the shift pattern etched on top. Like a Hurst knob, etc.. I like the chrome ones ok but I am used to the old-school type. I know I could buy a complete Hurst shifter to satisfy my cravings but I just rebuilt my stocker and would rather not have to do that R&R anytime soon.
 
Thanks,
 
Keith

I was going to say Summit or Jegs or almost any speed shop would have them.

I'd check on the threads before you buy that Hurst knob - I thought the stock shafts were bigger than a Hurst shaft.  But I don't know for sure - I've only got the stock version to look at.
