My 1975 has an after market shift nob and also has a black shift rod. I thought they had a chrome shift rod! Can someone please post pics of a stock shift rod?

I have an aftermarket short-shifter kit that has a chromed shift rod. My two 914 and several 911 rods are all black. Someone around here will know if chrome was a Porsche option.

Hmm, all mine are chrome. Never seen a black one, but all my cars have been 73 or later.

Looks like I have a short shift kit... I want to put the stock shift knob on but it doesn't fit. Am I crazy to go back to a stock shifter. I am not thrilled with my current shifter. Thoughts...

Ive removed several "short shift" from cars. The owners hated them.

I have never understood the need for a "upgraded" shifter. With an in spec trans, good shift bushings, and properly adjusted, the stock unit is easy and smooth to shift. Ok, so I can't slam 2nd gear. It not a drag racer anyway.
