    You might have better results if you referred to it as a shifter handle not a "bar".

    wheelz 'B' is for Buick.

    Hey Dan! I have been going thru various old storage boxes of Buick parts and I believe I might have a Buick 5335 Shifter and 3138 Competition Plus shifter...lemono if you still need one. .

    Wheelz,
    I am in the market for both. A while back I was shopping around and I bought a shifter/handle combo for a great price. Well the shifter seemed to work fine for the first couple of shifts, then it got harder to find reverse, then eventually reverse got lost. I goobed it up with grease hoping to restore some ease to the pattern, but it is only getting worse. The handle it came with (way too short, came out of vette) was only a bonus, I really made the deal for the shifter. Currently I am in the market for a handle, but if the shifter comes at a good price also, sold american. Let me know what you are looking for $ wise and what you have to offer. I am also open to a oversize knob, if you have one.
    Thanks for the reply.

    Wheelz,
    I changed my screen name to LeatherLaquerChrome, the automobile building materials of my youth. If you want to cut to the chase, give me a call on my cell anytime.

    CJay,
    Never got back to you to thank you for your recommendation on the proper naming of my article, from handle to arm. Thank you. Also, I have been reading up on a lot of your postings, very educating, thank you. Truly good work. If I do not get a functioning shifter from Wheelz, I might be looking for your talents to rebuild my current Competition Plus shifter. The guy I bought it from says it came out of a vette. This fact is not meant to impress, just to give a starting point for the rebuild.
