Art & Inspiration How about a shift knob thread?

Here is one I had engraved and then auctioned off for Ryan.

 

Anyone want to venture a guess as to what mine actually is? (Other than 'red ball')

 

@Dreddybear That’s from one of those centerpieces that looks like a bunch of grapes.

 

@Dreddybear, I’ll guess it is 1/2 of a clacker - the banned vintage knuckle-busting toy I had in the 70’s.

 

Both good guesses. Nope!

 

I’m out of guesses, but I think I sold you one of those twin blue gauges in there!

 

An oil pressure!

I think I have 50 or 60 of those twin blues. I one point I was up to 80 but I've let a few go... they were like crack to me.

 

I just joined and am trying to reach you re: the 1950 Monarch grille bars, how can I get hold of you?

Here's one of mine. I won it at an early HAMB Drags. I think it was for a good poker hand.

 

I just got this the other day

Made up a knob from a chunk of walnut and a cloisonne pin celebrating my clubs 60th year. Push Rods of Hoquiam, Wa. 1953-2013

 

OK, here's "Normy poo's info. LAR card #10.

 

Looks like colored resin cast in a Christmas ornament. When cured, break ornament away and polish and drill.

 

It looks like mine except I bored mine for the Lokar button. I got mine and several more off of a piece of driftwood, along with some plastic ivy, from a 60's centerpiece.

Had one of these in my truck when i was 16. Saved my money and bought a hurst t handle for it and took the stock one and put in the globebox. One day i was cleaning out the glovebox and it fell out. So then i got the great idea to throw it at a cat! Who knows were that thing is now! The dumb things u do when your 16!

Just a plain ole simple knob. I found out that a 1958 Corvette shift knob is a direct replacement on a "Gennie" shifter.
