Does anybody have a pic of and 69 xr7 shifter knob. I was sure what I have is original. Until someone told me different. I've been told it was original and I was also told that its not. I know it's not the same as a 69 stang. could someone please help out?

The request is for a 4speed shifter knob. Not auto. Thanks

Ok, maybe not a pic, How about just a description? Is 4 speed so rare, that no one has seen one ever? LOL. Find it hard to believe that no one on this amazing fourm has no input. Can some one please help a brother out?

Thanks but..

hey thanks John your always a big help. But the shift knob that I have is wood grain. It is round ball type. I posted a bad pic of it in the wanted section. but is it correct? or is the shift knob you posted correct? I have been told two different stories. I'll try to post pic HELP!!

The Blue Racing stripe knob IS the same as the 69 Mustang (but you KNEW that!!!! ) I've seen the woodgrain knob on earlier 67/68 Cats. Scott B has a 4 speed in his 69 428 SCJ XR-7 but it's a Hurst shifter, like the 70. Here's a standard 3 speed in a 69 XR-7 that I think is original.

Thanks Tim. the 3 speed looks very similar. So I think I'm on the right track when saying my woodgrain(was woodgrain) shifter is correct. Now I have to track down one thats not so worn.

BTW your vert is awesome, I'm in the process of restoring mine, I use a pic of your car on my desktop for inspiration. Thanks again

Just a thought......maybe MAYBE XR-7s had the 'wood' shifter where standards had the 'blue racing stripe'?????????

Thanks for the comments. I'm using http://www.mercurycougar.net/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=1644&password=&sort=7&thecat=500 for my desktop right now LOL.

Maybe your right I will continue to investigate. Maybe xr7 are the woodgrain and standards are the black shift knob.

Here is a pic on mine http://www.mercurycougar.net/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=1708&password=&sort=7&thecat=500 of course it's not floating in the clouds yet, but it's coming along.
