Ok well I'm kinda getting tired of looking at the factory shifter in my Balt so I'm thinking about putting my old shift knob from my last truck I built in it. The button that keeps the shifter from moving is messed up so I don't have to worry about that, lol. Of course if I put it in it will most certainly be repainted, but here it is...







These are all the pics I have of it right now. Please vote and leave me comments. I always got compliments on my shifter in the truck so I'd kinda like to bring that to the Cobalt now

 

LOL... good luck w this one....

 

Please no.

 

But why??? I think it would look so much better than the stock shifter, plus its a head turner. Like I said though if I do it the color will be changed. The shifter has a lot of sentimental value to me, that's another part of the reason I wanna put it in.

 

this is one of those..

"I'm gonna as what you think but either way I'm gonna do it" threads lololol

 

I find more and more threads to use this picture in everyday

 

chicks would love to ride that shifter i keed

 

 

who the hell would you shift with a bowling pin!?!? let alone put in a small compact car, a truck like you had it yes, a cobalt, no sorry, but to each his own

 

Does beer come out of that thing?

 

dont do it. it looks stupid at hell..

 

Well sounds like its unanimous, I guess I'll be holding on to the bowling pin till I get to start in on my Datsun 620

 

kid...did you really just decide not to put something into your own car for Fear others will think it is dumb? it's a cobalt you should be use to people thinking anything you do to a econo car is dumb just do it enjoy and try not to worry to much what people on a forum think

 

wtf...........................................

 

the shifter looks like a glass piece lol. hell if it was functional id use it haha. kinda cool looking too. maybe dont fit the interior look but 1 thing that stands out like that is fine in my book. go w/ what u like, who cares what others think about it

 

Yup, at least, not that clever.

 

Thank you, I take that as a compliment on my paintwork, lol, although I have to give the credit of the pinstriping to my good buddy Corkey. Its actually a fiberglass piece, I've had it for a long time and it's been painted I don't know how many time's lol. I was just toying with the Idea of putting this in until I can afford to build my Datsun and then it's designated to go there, and it's gonna have to be repainted to match the colors I'm planning on it anyways, lol.

I asked for criticism and I got it, doesn't hurt my feelings in any way

 

Any suggestions for a stock shifter replacement for an auto? May be something to look into in the future!
