That distinctive grid pattern on the dash looks like a '67 Coronet. Always wanted one of those along with a '67 Satellite. A friend of mine has several of those shifters in his collection Mopar B bodies.

Good catch on the '67 dashboard.

I believe that shifter replaced the Inland shifter in mid-1968. It was only available with a console. Lasted through 1969 till the Pistol Grip replaced it for everything other than the A-bodies, which used a conventional shifter at that point.

Years ago I drove a friends 383 4 speed '69 Charger that had the stock shifter. That thing was like shifting a truck.

This was an add in a local Trader paper back in 81'. I was senior in HS working as a tire buster at Sears. Didn't have the money, but cut the add out knowing back then what a good deal it was. I seemed to miss out on a lot of good cars back then!

I can see the screen shot you posted Alvin but not any of the others. I think it's something they are still working on as there is a thread going on about the issues. They're getting it together I trust.

Yeah, another thing outside of PY / Ames forums is Google forcing ALL Websites to become "mobile friendly" and if not bottom of the search algorithms for those not "mobile friendly" aka newer web browser friendly...
