That is correct, I had the Hurst shifter and linkage....along with the wrong transmission! I since have obtained a Top Loader and now I'm in search of a factory shifter, linkage, handle and knob.

I'm not one to post just for conversation but it maybe will save someone my mistake. I'm finishing up my restoration and trying my best to stay faithful in originality within reason and budget (other than color change lime gold to nighmist, it's been fun to read the posts) the only thing I wanted to change was exhaust system with headers so it could breath better and sound better. I knew it was going to be a struggle but come on! I did all the stuff, valve cover off, engine up, driver's side, on and on. Of course trying my best not to nick or scratch the newly painted everything. I went with the JBA try y's thinking they would fit the best after looking at all the header reviews. I had to dent( sorry clearance) the passengers side because the hit the shock tower, clearance ( let's be honest dent ) around steering gear, and driver's side shock tower, there wasn't room to get the collector bolt in on the passenger side floor pan. If you're thinking about doing headers I wouldn't!

Reread reply #2. "Most likely repro because it is not OEM." . If it is not OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) then it can not be a factory replacement. The odd trademark seen in your picture is not Ford.
I know what NOS means, I used the term incorrectly...is the fener something that might have been originally installed on the car or is it a factory replacement part or is it a repo part?

I agree..Lime gold isn't a bad color, kind of looks good with modern paint and a lot of clear. Funny, I've been watching videos of Jim Morrison driving his Shelby for motivation. At the beginning of this video is a car in a color similar to Lime Gold passing his Nightmist Blue Shelby.
