Well here is my new shift knob it's made from a 20mm dummy round i picked up for $2.99. I have to polish it still but its a start.

Heck, it controls an automatic transmission...and looks like a hazard in the event of a crash...again IMO doesn't work for me!

To each their own, and I'm sure you'll never see another one like it on the road. But I think that it looks beyond dumb.

 

[AvonLadyJenn]

Wow...totally not my style...but if it works for you. I would be worried in a crash myself too. :yucky:

 

[boblamb58]

Can you give us a back-seat perspective? Looks rather large so close. mebbe folks will like it more by seeing how it fits in overall.

one word...IMPALEMENT

 

[Shancopp]

It's cool. It's unique and you like it. Sure will be a conversation starter! Thanks for sharing!

 

[Brewski]

I think the "IMPALEMENT" says it all....and to think I bought the xB for the safety features (little did I know how much fun it is to drive!)

It really looks way bigger in the picture than it really is. Im working on planning kind of a Mad Max theme for the car. I went on a quest for the most obscure thing I could put on my shifter and that just happened to be what I found. I got sick of the normal shift knobs out there and coming from the whole rat rod world my mind kind of went to large pieces of scrap metal lol

 

[Shancopp]

sounds like a cool theme to go with. Post some more pix when you get em!

I'm thinking that's the same theme evil is going for in his "mods." We'll see when it's finally revealed.

So . . .
Are you going to "keep going" on that theme and make a "rat rod box?"
It does kinda remind me of a mix of the 30s square backed railed car and the front of the early 50s "shoebox" Fords.

With some Divco thrown in . . .

 

[pelly3s]

Its my plan to keep the rat rod this going, Its gonna take some planning though I have to keep it a daily driver too because Im too broke to get anything else.

 

[mountscion85xb]

ive had that bullet theme in mind for some time...but not that crazy
at my job i have valve cover 44mag to suicide wheel spinner and 44 mag shifter i think il stick to that
but no doubt my friend that is Original...

 

[dickmanne]

Yes! Stole my idea, you dog. Looks like a freakin' mortar round! I want to do the same with a live .50 cal - the kind with an exploding projectile.
Can't wait to lock that thing in a vise and start drilling-out the back-end of the shell for the threaded insert. Don't worry, I'll wear gloves and goggles.................

 

[pelly3s]

Im looking for .50 cal barrels right now for my next little update, i wanna get them before i take my bumper off to do my piercings and horn so I dont have to keep taking it off

 

[phobic]

haha, I love you bobby.

[TartanJack]

Manual or auto?
They are two different sizes.

Auto: M8 x 1.25
(As I recall)
