    WTB: Brown Shift Knob - OE 901 5 spd

    I am looking for a nicely patina'd OE shift knob. Prefer one that has worn to brown with a clear shift pattern. Some crazing okay but no major cracks. Do NOT NOT NOT want one that looks NOS or rich black or absolutely flawless shift pattern. If it is in the type of condition where you do this... knob in one hand and gesture up and down with the other hand upon each letter..."N" hand gesture up and down "O" hand gesture up and down "S" hand gesture up and down...then it's not for me.

    No perfect condition repros.

    Must be 901 spd - 1st lower left.

    Send pics (please focus the damn camera in macro mode) and price to bobt@werkcrew.com.

    Please and thanks.

    BTW - I meant karate type hand gestures. Not they type of gesture that requires spit or lotion.

    Scott - that almost looks too nice! More than happy to send you funds.

    Bob.
    I bet Scott's could be artificially aged by UV exposure, resulting in a nice brown patina. Let me know if you want to give this a try. I have high energy UV lights @ work.
