Sounds like a Hurst V-Gate. The "trigger" in front of the handle is pulled up to access 1st gear (or downshift from 3rd to 2nd). From 1st gear, it's a matter of yanking back and shoving forward for the next gear. When adjusted properly, it's a great piece of hardware.

I've no idea what they're going for now. I bought one at Stupid Shops around 1992 for ~$150. Someone on FABO was looking for a complete V-Gate setup recently.
