Does anyone know the part number Morse used for the "old style" shifter? This is the one used until the early/mid 1970s. It has a black base, chrome shift/throttle arm and round wood or plastic knob.
Morse is telling me they have not made it in years and don't know what I'm talking about - any help?
I am trying to get it for a freind who is doing a refurb on a Minx and wants the old style shifter. THANKS!

They do not make that shifter any longer. I did get a new handle and it looks great. They also make a few parts for the old shifter. I dont think they have changed them much.

As far as the shifter goes. I think they stopped making them for safety reasons. They do not have a lock out. The new ones you must lift a piece on the shifter handle to move it out of the locked position.

Guys,
I think these old ones are like gold.
