That's the original lever.

Those aren't the right change points, so it's a bit hard to say. Early TR2
had a unique shift lever and knob, which was changed before TS3000 (don't
recall the exact number offhand). Then all TR3-3B (even with the TR4
all-synchro gearbox) had the same hollow lever, and at least interchangeable
knobs. The TR4 used a much smaller diameter (at the knob) curved shift
lever(s).

There were other Triumphs that used that knob. Does it have the wrong shift
pattern on the top ? If so, it might be from a Triumph 10.
