            Loving it actually.

            The feel is great. The added weight and height have improved the already notchy shifting from my worn out trans... Reminds me of my dads old Fairlane with the four-on-the-floor dog-leg he used to have. But this isn't nearly as tall. It's different and i like it.

            It obviously sits up higher than stock, but it's perfect. Cruising in fourth, i can use the armrest and shift knob to comfortably rest my arm while driving through town. And the feel of polished wood-grain is awesome. Now i gotta get me an old-school Nardi wheel or something.

              This is the feature I liked most about it once I made one. The height makes it easy to rest your arm on the arm rest and literally flick it in and outta gears.

              On a side note, I got a few more in the works.

                      Fixed. Hopefully that clears things up.

                      Eh, I don't like selling on ebay. Maybe I just don't understand it, really.

                      Here's a few more I've been working on. Third one from the left is going to my personal one. Gonna be testing some new stuff on em very soon. Check back here for updates.

                        I got my knob in and installed to say the least...It's AMAZING... The craftsmanship and character is outstanding. Also, the style i have is very comfortable, smooth and natural. Most importantly, the height is perfect to rest your arm on. I will be purchasing another style sooner or later.

                              Sure, if I had someone crazy enough to want one.
