N.O.S. Brass Ruckstell shift lever F/S

Post by Philip Lawrence » Fri Jul 23, 2021 10:59 am

This will really dress up a brass speedster! These have not been produced in probably 45 years or more. This lever has never been mounted on a car, impossible to find in this condition until now. Previously the only way to purchase one was to buy a car that had one on it. Don't miss out I only have one available. $245.00 plus the shipping. Emails are the best way to contact me.

I should mention this is a fantasy piece that was never an original part from the Ruckstell Company. I believe that Bill Raider made these up decades ago.

That particular long handle shifter was used on TT's. Originals were steel or cast iron - not brass that I recall.

Here is a comparison photo showing an original Passenger car Ruckstell shift lever and the brass shift lever that I'm selling. As you can see the brass one is actually shorter not longer as Steve stated earlier.
