Brings to mind a special gear stick knob I fitted to my ole morrie 1000, found a nice chrome door knob a bit bigger than a billiard ball, filled it with Plastibond, tapped a thread and screwed it onto the stick, it was so heavy that when in first or third I only had to put my foot on the clutch and it just "fell" into the next gear, very sophisticated

donn you've got class the morrie must have been like the old zephyr's with 3 0n the tree decelerate and push the clutch in and automatically jumped back to second,

is it me seeing things, or is there four pedals ?

TheMiniMan ·

Nah, it`s a "Cresent",,, it`s actually been a very faithful old screwdriver & i found it really hard to do that to it,,, but i feel that it really did want to become my new gearstick & now it seems very very happy to be there in it`s new job :-)

& yes four (4) pedals,,, the extra one on the far left is for the fiddle brake (foot opperated rear brake) for motorkhanas,,, turn on a dime in it`s own axis :-)
