One is a Hall Scott shifter and has an additional bracket on it that has “Truck” embossed on it.
The other is a Ruckstell shifter that someone has bent the shaft. It could be straightened very easily.
$150 each plus shipping

So, what's the difference between a truck and passenger car shifter?

The TT truck has the battery by the running board so the lineage goes straight back to the shift lock. In standard chassis the rod has to cross over the drive shaft to dodge the battery.
