Swap: Perfecto or early Ruckstell shift handle for later

Post by KWTownsend » Wed Aug 20, 2025 8:17 pm

I have what I believe to be a Perfecto or early Ruckstell shift handle. I am looking for a later Ruckstell style shift handle.

The shifter I have uses three mounting bolts at the ball cap. The rod (not included) mounts at the same relative location as on a Ruckstell, but the shaft of the handle comes up from the mounting location, which puts the shift handle about 3" to the passenger side. The knob has good 3/8"-24 threads.

I would be happy to trade for a comparable Ruckstell shift handle. See pics.
email or text

Thanks,

Jim,
Yes. That is the type of shift lever I am looking for.
Would you be interested in a swap? Or selling?
