I saw this so long ago, and I forgot all about it, but I'd like to tell everyone about it.

It is an aussie invention, a shifter for toploader gearboxes (and a few others) that makes it sequential.

Here is the site. http://www.renagate.com/

$580? Thats about $400 more than my Toploader cost me. I'll stick with my Hurst. Practice makes perfect.

I think that's australian dollars man, so divide it by 1.35

so bout $430

Still expensive, but hell, it turns an ancient (and tough) gearbox into a sequential.

I don't like the throw of it too much though, 100mm, I would rather about 50mm, 2 inches or so.

That's pretty neat, but expensive.

They "may" be working on a design for the Richmond 6 speed as well.

That's neat, but it does sound an awful lot like a B and M shifter that was availible years ago... Friend of mine had one in his '70 Chevelle...One way up and the other way down (yes it was a Muncie 4 spd box) Nice for drags but kinda annoying on the street.
