Hello guys,
I have a 67 Sprite that has the conversion to the 79-80 5 speed Datsun trans. Here is a question since I have not messed with trans before... What is entailed about changing the shifter lever itself? Chrome lever and knob combo.
And/or does anyone have an extra shifter knob that will fit that is not an aftermarket with the universal adapters (allen screws that work loose?)Will other Datsun knobs, and I assume they have meteric threads, switch out? I know it is a minor thing, but aftermarket stuff seems a bit crappy. I do have a new moss Austin-Healy Sprite walnut knob that will fit the factory shifter should any of you have a possible trade?
Thanks,
Chris /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
