[TR] TR3 Shift knob restoration

[William Brewer <wsb1960tr3a@att.net>]

     I had the same problem. I had a cranked TR4 stick shift and the TR3 knob
had the wrong threads. I machined a threaded adapter at the time. I have since
switched to the correct TR3 stick and may still have the threaded adapter
still lying around in my shop if you still need it.
     The TR3 takes a long
tapered knob and the TR4 had I round knob ISTR.

I also prefer the original, the
walnut aftermarket look a bit gaudy, IMHO.

My original however doesn't fit
because it is a TR4 gearbox.  Did they
really change the threads or am I a
klutz?

Cheers!
