Would this shifter fit?

I'm surprised the pistol grip portion isn't 3D printed these days

Seems to me that Sox and Martin did extremely well with an Inland. If it was good enough for them, I guess I will use ours. I will keep the Hurst shifter that was in the car when we bought it.

I'm pretty sure that Ronnie made a living stirring a Hurst. That Inland would be one of the first things to go.

That handle will plug into a '68 bayonet-style mechanism but might hit the dash in first and third. The '70 mechanism had a shorter throw.

Rebuttal! He was earning a living with the Inland as well, as far as I can ascertain. He was JUST a winner.

Did early '68's still have Inlands?

You can tell an inland car from a Hurst car by whether there's a reverse indicator or not

"Inland" was the supplier of 4-speed shifter mechanisms to Chrysler from 1966-early1968. Characterized by tubular shifter with T-handle to access Reverse. Black knob with shift pattern. They must have been cheaper than a Hurst, and did not work as well. I built a 1967 Coronet with a 4-speed, and adapted an Inland shifter handle to a set of Hurst guts, to make it look correct for the year of production. I am not good at grabbing pictures and posting them, so will leave this to someone else.

Apparently there's an adapter for this these days:

I believe they ran out until they tool up to make more

So it would appear. Makes me think "imported".
