Title: KR Shifter Knob/box?
Post by: rjcassling on April 26, 2023, 01:20:35 PM
Just curious.

Don't see too many of these in this condition. The shifter knob looks legit to me for a KR. What about the box??

The price is ridiculous.  :)

I got the same knob-lunch pail item. Came out of a Dearborn garage sale bought by my friend for a buck in 1994. I talked him into selling it to me for 40 bucks. I found out later it's the flat 3 1968 design(bought a few used ones off of 68 Shelbys that were upgraded). It's in my collection. I think they are pretty hard to find. Has anyone figured out  when the 3s changed over to the rounded 3 design? I know Jan of 1969 they went to a darker woodgrain.
