Attached are a few pics of the shift boot that came with my car (73 appearance package) when I bought it in 1985. It appears to be leather. Would this be the shift boot that came with the car when it was new?

I could be wrong in my use of "appearance package"... The car came with fog lights, chrome bumpers, and a leather steering wheel. It was a 1.7 and did not have the option for the center console with the gauges.
Glad to know that this is the correct shift boot. The round base doesn't match the shifter base so I guess the flange on the base of the boot just tucked under the opening in the carpet. There's a slice on the passenger side of the boot. Should I try to repair it or get a replacement leather boot to put on the existing base to which the current boot is stapled? |
