I think it took more than one beer to figure out the linkage quite frankly. I might just trade out some prized possessions and fire this baby up.

Even when it was new it doesn't look like a smooth shift. I wouldn't loose to many possessions on this one David

Discombulated looking, but I can see that it probably worked. The back-forth action of the shift lever looks like it had to have some side-to-side action at the nose of the trans as well. There's a lot of action going on there.

True but it did work. A little rust doesn't scare me.
