If you do a search under shift knob, you will likely find some pictures of
his work. They are beautiful.

There is a guy out there making wooden shift knobs with an overdrive switch
in them; his name is Jerimy. Can anybody give me his contact info? I'd like
to order one.

Thanks

David

But it requires a special shift lever, hollow and with larger threads.
Which they show as "No Longer Available".  That NLA "retainer" is important,
too, as the knob itself is not threaded.

I have the same setup on my Stags (as original).  I like the concept, but
can't say I like the execution.  That slide switch is somewhat hard to
operate even with bare hands, and practically impossible with driving gloves
on.  Since I can't feel it's position even with bare hands, I wind up having
to look at it every time to be sure it moved all the way.  (If it gets left
in the middle, the OD may jump in or out of gear unexpectedly, which I find
annoying.)

YMMV and all that

My 3 resto project came with a pool cue ball for a shift knob.  Someone had drilled a hole on a  diagonal and installed a button OD switch.  The ball was pretty rough when I got it so I didn't keep it.  Anyway, maybe put your hand on the knob like you do when you shift, then place the switch where it seems less likely to be bumped?
