1962 RAGTOP SUNROOF PROJECT FOR SALE

So I a pretty sure I know the answer but I am going to ask so I don't miss an opportunity.

That is an EMPI Hurst knock off shifter and not an actual Hurst unit right?

I am 99.999 percent sure, but it never hurts to ask.

I JUST TOOK A LOOK AND IT DOES NOT SAY EMPI. I HAVE NOT REMOVED IT FOR A FULL INSPECTION BUT UP BY THE REVERSE PULL WHERE THEY ALL SAY EMPI ITS BLANK. THERE IS AN EMBOSSED RECTANGLE ON BOTH SIDES BUT THATS IT.

It should say Hurst, I have real and fake I can post pic's if you want.

Naw, It should say Hurst. But the raised Hurst lettering is not as pronounced as the EMPI lettering and since I did not see EMPI I thought just maybe...

Thanks for looking though...

Amazing how many of these little cars have survived in relatively solid condition.

WELL.......I THINK TWO OF THEM NEED WORK (LF, LR). LF HAS BONDO AND A COUPLE TARES IN IT AND THE LR HAS A TARE IN IT. BUT THEY SEEM TO BE ORIGINAL GERMAN METAL. I SEE THEM FROM $25-70 EA ON SAMBA, SO $70X4=$280 NAH! COME CHECK THEM OUT AND MAKE ME AN OFFER. THAT IS AFTER THE CAR IS PAID FOR AND HE IS SURE HE WANTS TO GO FENDERLESS.

That is very cool Cliff.

Maybe you will become that legendary volksrod builder up in the mountains that lives in a cave and survives only by eating old discarded fenders.

Do you still want to put those Kads on it or are you moving in a different direction?
