Look what I got today!

very nice!
that shifter was extremely short
glad you're getting the parts for it!
I ordered all the bushing and what not. I think I may need the upper part of the shifter (it is listed on realoem as upper shift lever) but I cannot order it from my regular suppliers. I will post pictures of what I have in the morning. To me it looks like someone cut the upper shift lever for some reason. I really don't know. I hope the bushings will make it easier to shift until I can source a new or used lever. I really don't want to spend the money on a short shift kit.

what else do you have planned to do on the car over the next little while? will you be driving it in the snow?
I do not plan on driving it in the snow. I have my eta that I will drive during the winter and parting in spring. It's such a good runner I have not had the heart to part it out. Just keep driving it. To be honest I drive the eta all summer too as my hauler.
The eta has a blue interior that I am going to swap into the 533, in fact I have started but have been sidetracked
. I am in not a big hurry. I have 2 garage stalls that I need to clean out before anything else. -
Looking forward to seeing and hearing the improvements. Keep up the good work!

Nice

I have had broken ribs before and the only thing that really sucks is that they take so long to heal, sometimes 4 months or more! When it does happen I like to think that the pain management builds character and makes me stronger. I took the day off today but I will be at it tomorrow.

I replace the shifter and lower shift bearing but I did not replace the plate mounts or shift coupling. They are secured by an inverted torx. I have the tools but not here. It really is tight under there. I did not take off the exhaust or drive shaft. Am I fighting a losing battle here?
It shifts like a new car with what I have replaced. I can't wait to finish the job!
