Man, this takes me back. My dad had one like this, but silver where this one is white when I was a kid. Those seats make the think about the many miles we put on that truck!
This might be a good place to ask seeing as all your trucks are within the generation of the parts truck I'm using for my 56 Mercury M350.
This shift lever needs to have a bend put in it so it doesn't interfere with the steering wheel and I'm not sure how much of it is solid stock.
I'm thinking it's only the top narrowed section on top where the k n o b is pressed on that is solid.
I'm afraid of heating it up and attempting to make the bend and end up kinking the tube. Finding another lever around here might prove difficult..
