Looking good terry. What shifter did you use to make your shifter and did you make it all?

When you figure it out let the rest of us know, I like the idea.

I really like the sxs front wheels and tires. Did you have to drill your rotors for the wheel pattern or is there a wheel close enough to fit a vw pattern?

I love the shifter. How does it feel compared to a solid linkage shifter? I've been adjusting my solid linkage all over the place and it still isn't quite right. From your picture I can see how the one cable moves the linkage forward and backward, but how did you do the cable that pushes it in and out?

It feels great! The other cable comes in from the side and twists it in and out.
