Hi guys,
As we start to get into the interior on my '75 2.0, I wanted to find out if this was an original shift knob or a replacement. It's wood, and pretty well worn. I couldn't really find anything in the forums referencing it so, I thought I would ask. Thanks, Mike Attached thumbnail(s)

Were originals leather wrapped or just hard plastic (similar to the ones SierraMadre sells)

QUOTE(mmichalik @ Aug 14 2018, 08:37 AM)  Were originals leather wrapped or just hard plastic (similar to the ones SierraMadre sells) With the Appearance Group cars they were Leather wrapped 70-73, then Leatherette Vinyl wrapped 74-76 (same with steering wheels). Also, the Originality & History Forum has a lot of this sort of info, as well as at p914.com (& .org & .net) & at Jeff Bowlsby's 914 websites. http://bowlsby.net/914/Classic/ (get his other links from there) PS - Leather wrapped is NLA, but you can get a used one rewrapped if the badge is still good.
