Hurst 4 Speed Console Shifter

I found this one at a swap meet. If I remember correctly I paid close to 400. For the handle with woodgrain ball. Not sure if it is a repo or restored original. Slip in style. Does have the Hurst letters in the stick. I think there is two different Hurst console handles for different years. Late 68 & 69 up.
The console plates I got are repo's. If you have a original plate to get restored that would be the way to go as the aftermarket one I got came in very twisted. I was able to take most of the twist out of it but am afraid to bend it anymore. I think it would break. The gap at the glove box door is not as nice as the originals nor the paint finish but the chrome is nice. The boot is nos.
I still have not been able to find the side cover that the carpet covers but have heard of a fiberglass replacement?
The cost of the above parts, the passion aluminum 18 spline 833 and all the conversion to 4-speed bits was enough to buy a pretty decent running car. Not really worth the expense in my opinion. You have to really want it. I see no chance of ever selling this car for the price of the parts these days.
