So how cheasy is it???

You will have gotothe original thread to see the pics but here is what I did.

"I figure the boot with cover most to half of the chrome piece. This was a shifter I got with my trans, it had been cut clean off where the stock two piece one went together.

Still has / uses the stock bend in the bar towards the drive and I added on about a piece of 4 inch pipe. Cutoff a piece of chrome pipe to cover the weld and finish it off clean. The handle is a side grip for a drill I never used. Cut the bolt off the top flat and ever.


I had it in the vise jerking it around through the gears. Feels solid.

Of course it could end up working like crap, but I had some free time and threw something together.


But it feels real comfy and solid. "

I've seen a lot worse on a Camaro with a TH350. Like a strap of steel driven through a
hole in the tunnel with a 3/16"? rod from an old screen door bent
to go between the shift lever and the strap. The owner couldn't figure out why he had trouble finding the gears!!

 

OK so it didn't work out, so I made me a retro funky shifter that has little function but lots of style. Just need to grind some welds and get it gold plated. It has a nice T handle grip and I call it the

G Money Special [shifter]

Ill be taking orders over the holidays

Its sure to be tops with the ladies.

 

BAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!..................i think

 

I'm not really the gold kind of guy but Ill get it installed early tomorrow and go cruise for chicks. Ill try and get some action photo's and results. The next guy to pull next to me in a pick up is gonna lose it.

Its kinda neat. Wish I had a few old cut off shifters to play around with. Maybe a nice swoopy one with a chrome skull.

 

what on earth, how far is the throw on that thing, would it hit you when you put it in 2nd, or punch you passenger when going to reverse?

 

Man did my retro shifter work out sweet as heck. Its actually a short throw shifter too. 1-2 is about half the distance as it was before. It has smooth solid action with that retro feel and quicker shifts, hahahahaha

Ya I'm good.





neutral

 

1st

 

2nd

 

reverse

 

Heh, thats creative man .. i only like the big shifters like that for bench seats. If that shifter really cuts the throw in half good lord .. the stock throw must be huge. The standard thirdgen i had was a 4speed with a hurst and it was super short throw with positive as hell shifts. Anyone have pictures of the throw of a stock 5 speed shifter in 1st and second?

 

The bottom most of the shifter up to the start of the $ is in the stock position. so draw a line up and there is a good 3 1/2 - 4 in difference.

 

well thinking of it that way its the same amount of throw.just brings your hand closer to the dash. You may not have to go back as far but you need to push it up further.

 

Looking at most of the shifter you can get they all seam to do that. [move the sifter up.] I think myself it is the down shift that is the easy one to miss, it goes so far back.

I drove around for a while and it was cool. Only neutral is uncomfortable. I have a real lazy foot and wasn't thumping into gear, it was smoother.

I would say its like putting ape hanger on a HD. No real reason but its neat.

I like to thank my sponsor G Money products.

Cause when the ladies see them they think
" Gee??? he must have money!"

 

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW, tears are rollin big time from LOL!!!! Seein the pics of the "shifter" was one thing, seeing that thing installed is definately quite another. Dude, if you want to live longer, do not allow guys in big 4x4's or semis to roll up next to you and see that "thing" as they'll most likely swerve into you from laughing. This made my day, thanks

 

WHAT?! HAHA that is the single most ghetto thing I have ever seen. Get some plush velvet interior, green paint, and some gold rims for that Gd up ride. Green for the money and gold for the honeys...

 

that is funny...

if all else fails, u can take the shifter out n beat someone with it..

You can tell the newbies that its a shifter out of a jet airplane (a pimpish german one =]) and say it adds another 50 horsepower..

very creative, i'll give you that

 

Fugly

 

As cheasy as it does look. I have had fun driving around the past two days. Ive been racing everywhere avoiding the quicker routes so I can shift more. It has great action and feel.

Its been a blast. Maybe I could sell a few on ebay.

 

wtf

 

Isnt it great living in a free country!!!

 

That, honestly, is one of the most stupidest things I have ever seen.


... Yea, I know I used improper English. It was the only way to really emphasize how stupid it looks. WTF? Is someone suppose to look at that say "money"?

Tim

 

i feel good knowing i am not the only one thinking that.

 

one word GHETTO! My full size truck doesnt even have a shifter that long! Ok lets go with it...go to a hobby shop/arts and crafts and get some diamond stud things and glue them up and down the whole thing so you can also get the bling bling effect!

 

Don't forget to get a can of Gold spray paint and spray paint it gold before applying the diamond studs. Better yet - Mask it off and pait the dollar sign green and the rest gold. THEN apply the diamond studs. That would be ... well ... that would be money.

Gay.

Tim

 

Holy crap....i have so much to say, yet dont know what to say...

ill let the picture do the talking...

 

Dude..............





















You must have been bored to DEATH! You forgot the gold spray on the $ to add the "bling bling" factor. You must have been eating fried chicken and drinking 40 oz. bottles of Shlitz malt liquor when you came up with that idea!

Oh well, at least it's original.......LOL

Thanks for the amusement!

 

Your just jealous cause you don't have a G Money shifter.

If you really want I can make you one.

 

So your taking pre orders??? I see this being BIG. HEY thats it the BIG money shifter! Better get a patent soon!

By the way what the hell is this --->:lala:
is it a retarded snow man?

 

DUH, its the 'la la' smiley.
:lala:

 

I know that but it looks like dancing snow man poop or something!

 

HAHAHAHA WTF, that is the most ghetto fabulous thing I have ever seen, pimpin aint easy.

 

Some of you guys took him wayyy to seriously. He wanted a laugh and he got one. It's not like he's taking it to car shows with the Bling Bling ultra-shifter installed.

That is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. You deserve a pat on the back for that one. My day at work is a little less boring now.

List of things to do tonight... make a steering wheel that looks like a cent sign.

 

You know, I bet the low rider truck guys would buy that thing. It should be standard equipment on armored trucks.

 

OK, so I cut the money sign off and finished my pro 5.0 clone. it helped though using the funky shifter for a while. I got the shape and size right this time around.

3rd times a charm.

Course it still the stock base,
no shift stops but cheap cheap cheap.

 

ahahahah nice clock on the steering wheel!!

 

I FIGURED OUT WHAT THE SWITCH IS FOR..


its the G money pimp switch!

 

LMAo, that's good

 

i don't know to laugh or cry or hurl......


defitanly original and worth the laugh......

now you should get one of those staue of liberty things you see all over ny for the tourist and weld that on there...... or maybe a ***** piston......


lol thanks for the chuckle

 

That was pretty funny!

 

That hand looks like it came straight out from the Monty Python show

 

then my goal was achieved.

 

LMAO!!!!

That's funny...

 

Awesome


Matt

 

LMAO. I wonder which took longer... the making of the shifter or the gif.

 

AHAHAHAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

that is some horrible picture matching, but the effect is pretty good. Monty Python rocks.
