Default Let's Play.. Name that shifter!

Hey guys, I really dig the website. My grandfather used to own a dealership that sold just Corvettes in San Antonio a long time ago. So after he passed away we were left with some stuff I was hoping to identify. I also have 3 original wheels that came off an older vette i will post up later.

First, I'd like to understand what year Corvette these two shifters came off of. I'll probly end up selling them on Ebay. They are on great shape and im sure someone would like them.



Thanks!

I have a egg shaped wodden one on my 76 auto. It has the sam button and almost the same handle. It came with the car. I hate it, the button is so heavy it made the spring sag so it can now be shifter into reverse o nthe fly. You only need to push the button to go out of park, nothing else at all either way. But mostly cause its ugly in my 76 firethorn. It had a very bad wood trim on the center ocnsole, tbut the orgional wood trim on the doors. The doors look nice but i took the center console back to black and i want an orgional shifter back to look at least ok.
