Regular round ball knob or leather wrapped have always been the most comfortable and best looking to me personally. I think T-handle, pistol grip, or gimmicky beer tap/skull knobs look way out of place in mustangs (and mostly any car for that matter).
All very nice, havent tried a pistol grip yet im going to though, Anybody got anything unique??? My buddy just got out of the army and he drilled and tapped out a 40mm grenade round its pretty sweet
Yea, I've seen that done before, it's pretty cool.
I used to have access to a machine shop at a orthopaedic manufacturer and I made a shift knob for my car out of implant-grade titanium alloy. In other words, my shifter could have ended up in your grandma's hip.
The shape is pretty basic, it's just the material that makes it cool. You can see it in this older picture:I also think the new MGW knobs are pretty cool:

haha i had to many issues punching the dash going to 3rd to stick with it... other then that it worked fine for even driving hard.
anyone else with a pistol grip feel like they could break a shift handle if they tried?

That's what I have in my LX. I had a custom boot made for it in gray with black stitching to match the knob better.
I've been trying to figure out what I want for my Saleen. The darned later Fox Saleen knobs go for $300+ used, so I don't want to keep it in there all the time. I think I'm going to swap in my white Hurst ball for now.

I had a B&M t handle in my 89, I liked it a lot but it didn't thread onto my handle so it was loose, kinda annoying.
When I get one for my 80 im gonna get the cobra 5 speed one like what 5l5 has. I like the look of that one a lot and it looks stock and not out of place

Forgot to add, my shift boot is also a custom leather boot by redline goods. It smells so good since it's real leather
