So everybody, I have the idea for a new photo thread. What kind of shift knob do you have? Traditional or wacky. I have seen lots of pics of them lately so lets group them up. I will find pics of my old ones and post them too.
Super old photo, but its the same one I am rocking right now. 77 SR5 truck knob but somebody seems to have lathed down the size a bit to get ride of the fake "stitching"
Photobucket is being a ****head right now so I can't seem to get the links for more pics. I have tons, I make and change them alot. I have a 7" shrek action figure that talks, a brass skull i cast, a bunch of various stock toyota knobs, im working on a glass one with LEDs.
Here's mine I believe its from a 77 or 78 can't remember which with a shifter extension I made. I like tall shifters haha
Had brass knuckles in my honda, pbr tap in my d50, and am making a sawed off shotgun shifter for the toyota. Can't find any pictures of the pbr tap, but here's one of the knucks.
I drilled out an 8 ball golf ball I got out of a vending machine years ago. Nice and small, I'll grab a pic this weekend when I've got it all apart swapping a w58 in.
Had a new castle tap shifter and currently a Major League Baseball drilled and helicoiled removable and stock knob for business time
You guys make me proud this has so many pics already lol. I think KMGhawaii had a cool glass/acrylic flower style one in the works. I have seen a lot of other good ones. Anybody wanna link peoples pics to here for me as you find them? I will add all my pics tonight. I will take ones of my collection of shift knobs. Thanks guys
Im happy I DO NOT have any pictures of it but when my buddy bought his truck it came with a penis. The previous owner carved out a giant well detailed wood penis and screwed it onto his shifter. It was sooooo funny watching him trying to drive around before he replaced it as he didnt want to touch it.
Here is an in progress pic of one that I made last weekend. Its a black ceramic door knob from a 100+ year old house that was on a friends farm. I researched and found that some cars have lug nuts that are the same threads as our shifters (12x 1.25 if I remember right) so all I had to do was go buy a set of "tuner" lug nuts and weld the knob onto the nut. Its surprisingly comfortable.
that is too funny. I knew a guy who told me his old boss was a construction foreman, and one of the guys carved a big foam dick and would always leave it on the bosses shifter. then they would all laugh from the roof watching him have to go deal with it. And I saw way too many acrylic shifters on ebay listed as dildo shifters. Whats wrong with the world? I remember when girls were happy to sit on a stock five speed knob
