Title: Please help ID 1969 4 speed shifter #3138
Post by: Badshifter on July 04, 2023, 10:58:26 PM
Hurst Competition Plus #3138, date code stamp 10 7B3. I can't figure out that date code. Thanks for any help. I looked at the CRG shifter info but can't decipher the date.

Thats the link I was referring to.
So does that mean the date is October 1967? January 1970? Thank you.

Oct 67 (early 68).  Most likely early 68 bird if I had to guess.

I just cleaned up the original shifter on my 69 Z28 and it had some rubber or plastic bushings (mine were crumbling or missing) in the shift rods where they attach to the shifter body.  Are those available and/or needed?  I reassembled it with some lube and without the rubber pieces.
