I recently received the new "T" handle shift knob from MGW as part of the absolutely AWESOME giveaway I was fortunate enough to win over the Christmas holidays.
This is the shift know similiar to the old Hurst knobs. Of course you all knew that.
I'd love to post pics but the handle is at my house in Florida and I am in San Diego CA. When I get home after some military training I'll post a pic or two.
My 14 year old son seems to think this new shifter knob is the cats meow.
I must thank George at MGW again for the awesome giveaway!

Placed an order last week for a gray one. They also have silver in stock, but are still having production issues with the chrome version. George is holding off advertising until it is resolved. Will post pic's when it arrives.

Went to their website but didn't see a link. Anyone have a link to the versions currently available for sale?

I miss my old Hurst Aluminum T handle from my 76 Camaro.

It is possible to put a Hurst T-handle on a stock shifter. I just did it. Had to bore out the handle with a 1/2 inch drill bit and thread with a 9/16-18 tap and get a nut for securing in position. Looks good and it feels pretty good, but does get hot in the sun.
