Wanted, never had. Would not want the closer one ever.
Moved a 3 on the tree, to a Hurst floor shifter, in a 72 Chevy.
I did the same for a 72 Ford. It had a wore out 302 that got re-placed with a slightly worked 351 Windsor that had been bored .020″ over during the rebuild. The overbore bumped the displacement up to 357 CI and I called it the 357 Magnum.
Same, ’74 Merc.
Had a Hurst in all my manual transmission cars that they were available for. Used steel bushings from Mr. Gasket instead of the plastic ones from Hurst. Gave it a much more solid feel, and if you kept them lubed, they never got sloppy.
Had a V-gate in my ’57. Wife hated it.
Converted the stock 4 sp in my 70 Camaro SS to a Hurst Ram rod.
And nothing shifted like the worn out badly installed one some genius had thrown in the 74? C10 worktruck back when I worked as a campground maintenance idiot. I think 2nd & 4th were the only reliably located gears. (tho that changed at times)
A Hurst Shifter made you the coolest kid in town.
