That HURST Shifter Thread

I thought we ought to have a photo thread for HURST shifters and related items. I have a small stash that I add too from time to time. I just got an NOS Ram Rod IN THE BOX, and also an unused dash decal to go with it. My Ram Rod collection is now complete. I have the shifter in the box, the special floor boot in the box, decal, linkage and mount for A833 MoPar all NOS.



In the cabinet you can also see the box from the NOS Auto-Stick that we just used in Bruce Singers '55 Series II GMC, as well as a Ram Rod Dealer Suppliment listing all the part numbers for the Ram Rods:

do you know if hurst makes or made a shifter for my 55 chevy pickup?stock four spd trans.

 

I've got a scabby old Mr. Gasket V-gate for a mopar around here somewhere...

 

Heres a few decals from my stash:

 

I'd need to know what transmission you have. 4 speed doesn't help. SM-420? No.

 

Question. I seem to recall that in the late sixties-early seventies, there were some white T-handles around, made from the same material as the white ball handles. Am I dreaming this?

 

Great Ram Rod Items and decals! Let me know if you guys have a Ram Rod Shifter Boot layin' around! Thanks!

 

Idk?its in a 55 chevy 2nd series 3100.original spd.I was just wondering.Btw you have a nice collection

 

oh....don't make me hall my stuff out again.....

 

nos...white t handle and red 4 speed ball , a couple of original water slide decals

 

If memory serves, you have an SM420 then. I'd have to look it up, but that means you have a truck trans. And, to my knowledge, no they never made one for that transmission.

 

Damn Mark. When you decided to unload any of that, you let me know!!

 

That is a very cool collection of stuff you have there! I remember when our local parts house quit selling Hurst they just thru all that stuff in the dumpster. Wish I had thought to keep it now!

 

Is anyone reproducing this decal? Thanks in advance.

 

Pitts:

Is there any way I could get copies of the Dual Gate info? I have one sitting on the shelf that I might want to put to use.

I also have a set of Lightning Rods that are not currently in use if anyone has need for them.

Thanks. As I get older, sometimes I dont trust my memory, looks like i got it right this time.

 

ya! it is the original trucks trans.I just thought i would ask thank you very much anyway.I guess i will just have to put a muncie 4 spd in it so i can run a sweet ass hurst shifter in it.thnaks for the the pictures guys.

 

Dont buy some phony repop, be patient and one will show up on the HAMB or ebay eventually.

 

I'm looking at putting a 1964 Fairlane/Sunbeam Tiger toploader in my '62 Ford Fairlane. The one I've found doesn't have the shifter or rods, so I'm leaning towards putting in a Hurst Competition Plus shifter. The issue is the Hurst installation kit for this toploader (1964/65 Fairlane/Galaxie/Sunbeam Tiger - 431) hasn't been produced in the past few years, although you can buy pieces separately. The only piece I can't find is the reverse rod, Hurst part #530-213-3695. Anyone have one or know where I could get one?

Thanks!

new to site, i live in wichita kansas and went to a garage sale other day and found a hurst 4-spd shifter handle, he only wanted 1.00 for it because we both owned jeeps and bought it for my 78 trans am 4-spd but it looked older and was wondering if you guys might beable to tell more about it, im not to familiar with them

 

I would have thought someone would have posted one of these already. A friend gave me this that he bought in the late 60s. The sticker has never been used, and I still have the envelope it came in.....

 

Love the decals, really love the engine mount ones with the ladies.

Thanks for the photos guys!

 

Do ALL Hurst shifters have HURST stamped into the shifter neck?

 

The early factory installed ones dont.

 

Competition Plus in my 55.......pay no attention to the extra boot laying on the floor, or the glove box.





The "Warning Hurst equipped" sticker on the dash..........



Super Shifter in my 40............

 

Heres a '60s ProMatic case(I have the shifter too).
I gave it a "rattle can" resto.

How 'bout a HURST money clip, or maybe it was intended as a tie clip. I purchased it several years ago through an Ebay auction, where it was advertised as a Money Clip.

 

Now THATS Traditional! The more I find out about your "junk", the more I want to know.
