Clayton we will be doing that asap.. That was actually the plan.. Martin had advertised there intially, and I will be following up for him.

Concerning your questions:
Does your shifter have any kind of reverse lock-out?
Yes, there is a spring gate. Spring pressure must be overcome to get into reverse..

Or is it simply detented out of the pattern with springs?
Not sure what you mean by detented? I will include bigger pic on club914 showing the gate better. If you PM your email address I can also send you the pics.

If my memory is correct you also have a tail shift kit of some sort that looked interesting.
Are you referring the the shortened nosecone? If yes, let me know and I can get you more info or pics.

By the way.. if ya go to the 914club board. Let them know I suggested you post over there.
Will do.. Its always easier if someone opens a door for you..

Will get over and take care of business tonight..
Thanks
Alex

Kewl Alex..!!!

I will PM you my e-mail data.

And PLEASE do send me some pics for any of the 914 goods you have for sale.

I suggest you try to sell 1 or 2 shifters at cost or simply LOAN one of your shifters to one of the club members. (I have names that will help you)

If it works as advertised and one of the KNOWN members writes a positive report .
Your credibility and ability to sell your shifters and other 914 parts will go well.

The 914club members are so well versed on "What Works".

It is sometimes difficult to get anyone to try a new part.

All you need is a couple good reviews and you will probably sell the hell out of them.

Your only competition is the James West shifter. And it is a very nice shifter.

I have one. It's a nice piece.

Let me know if ya need help. I support ALL GOOD 914 vendors.

We need more of you guys in our world. !!!!!!!!!

Cheers,
Clayton Clark

Will this round shift knob fit the VW one you make? This would be the a good touch to that shifter. Also wondered if you made a taller shift rod for the VW one? Would be nice to have it just a little closer to the steering wheel. So maybe an 1 1/2 inch taller?

Thanks,

Gary

Gary,

Yes on Ball, about 30 bucks or so..

Extra long shifter, not at this time.. Maybe down the road we can get a few folks (at least 5) and do a limited run..

Keep me posted..

Martin should be touching base with you soon..
Alex
