Zele Titanium Shift Knob

birdman71 · 07-03-2015, 02:29 PM

Hey Guys, I am in the midst of looking around for one of the discontinued Zele Titanium Shift knobs.

Anyone have a good estimate on how much I will be looking at spending?

Thanks!

$400-600

Screw that.

Here's your titanium: McMaster-Carr

Here's what you can do with just a little patience and access to some tools...

I'd love to make my own like that I would go on a rampage with that. I'd have a new shift knob every month lol.
Sadly no access to tools like that.

If you got time I wouldn't mind if you made one for me, that shifter is beautiful and precise; I'd gladly pay you for the materials and your time time.
pm me if you would ever be interested, hit me up and we can talk more about it

I appreciate the kind words but with a 1960s era manual lathe it just takes me too long... if it were a CNC machine it would be no problem. If I weren't in grad school, working full time, and rebuilding/painting a Jeep I'd maybe do a few one-off pieces anyway and just sell them to other Z enthusiasts for the cost of material. It's fun to make things and good practice for the pro-level car my buddy and I are planning to build.

If/when in the future I fabricate some more stuff for the Z (aluminum diffusers with stainless rivets maybe) I'll be sure to post pics.

Sounds good my friend! Hope everything goes well with the jeep and grad school!
