    Is there a repro 5335 handle, or does Hurst offer a handle with the same fit/dimensions with a modern part number?

    The repro handle is like all repros, off. The Hurst lettering leaves a bit to be desired. You can pick them right out. To the bet of my knowledge, they only make it as a bolt in handle not a bayonet so it only fits on an aftermarket mechanism with a bolt on style selector

    I think cars sell a repo. Wanna say its 200. They're on ebay.

    Yes, about $200 for the repro handle.

    For $150 more, you can buy this restored one on Ebay. And from the looks of the levers, its a 68-69 version

    If its as good as the pics, this is a great deal. The rebuild kit from Hurst shifters online for the mech is $100 alone. The plating on the shifter had to be at least $75. Btw, this isn't mine but Im definitely talking myself into buying it

    Yeah Jason that is definitely the way to go. Tom was asking about handle only I believe, and I remember seeing them on ebay. Didn't know how incorrect looking they were. Thanks

    I'm looking for correct fit over looks.
    When I'm sitting in a bucket seat of a 69 GS400, and go to do a Wide Open Throttle 2-3 power shift, I don't want some wrong shaped or too short handle that forces me to have to lean over into the passenger seat to get it into 3rd.:grin:
