Anyone have an interesting idea for a shifter / shift knob for my car?

[pOrk]

Plan on extending my shifter and trying to come up with something cool / unique to use for a shift knob. EVERYONE suggests brass knuckles or beer tappers, I am looking for something different. Maybe a pistol grip but I remember seeing that done before too. Any ideas?

i like the idea of a skull with light up eyes

A real pistol. find an old shitty revolver or pistol for $50-75 and make it happen.

I personally like pineapple nade shifters. They're usually cheap at the gun shows.

lol at Stew, I'm down for it if you can find me one :) Or hell I could use a shut gun for the shifter and weld the barrel right to the linkage

Baseball bat. Saw the "ball hitting part" off and there you go. A little grip tape for patina...

Some kind of Bamboo walking stick cut down

Eric, tear down a weedwacker, get the mini piston and wala !

I remember giving one to my bro, he hung it on his rear view mirror on his chevelle

[Cryptic]

I got a 1-off shift nob from http://www.hotrodshiftknob.com/

I bet they will put anything in a ball for you if you have a personal idea.

Should CNC a cartoonish beetle. I do like the brass knuckles idea. I made a gated shift plate for the Supra out of 1/8" aluminum it turned out cool.

[spooln30]

I have another good idea. Use a cylinder from a revolver and make it spin like it would on the gun. Could even have spent casing in it. Damn I might just do this my self.

I have a couple old revolvers from the 1800's that aren't worth shit and I may sell them in that price range.

Now hanging in my work van. This would look perfect in an older beetle. The diameter is about an 1-1.5".

VERY cool idea!

I just like big shiny epoxy knobs. I have a med-high shifter in my truck, we wanted to make a wood shift knob with a zippo built into the top, so I don't keep looking for lighters on the floor/glovebox/pocket

You could get a fake human femur bone and cut it down so the top of the bone is the knob

or

you could stack and glue some white legos (the flat sheets that look like mini sheets of dry wall) until you get one that is 2'-3" tall and then cut out the shape that you want.

rubber hand from halloween store, so everytime you shift it looks like your giving a high five.

How about a clear shifter knob with a beetle ( the insect ) encased in it?

I always used the wrong shiftknob for the vehicle. One of my favorites is to use one off a SM465 transmission. Plus it's a giant knob.

Something like that.

My neighbor Tom does custom wood skulls (art). I may be able to insert a threaded bushing into one and make a knob?
