Been picking at the red ‘74 ex-turbo car and had the time to dig further into the shifter set up.
I pulled the rod off the car because the coupler locating pin (threaded cone) was partially stripped and look what I discovered when I put it next to another side shifter rod I had. Look at the difference in curve in the one on the right (one pulled off).  |

yikes that's a mess!! Bruce Stone has a jig to bend them back to proper position. I just got a bar from him that was repowder coated, he says he takes all of them and re-aligns them before cleaning them up and repainting them. Mine is on its way back now to me from him after going to Colorado and having a Rauch&Spiegel coupler installed on it. It will be interesting to compare it with my original one on the car now.
