The Spitbits.com online catalogue shows a column-mounted OD switch as 
applying to the MkI and MkII.  I didn't look far enough to find the 
shifter for a Mk3 OD gearbox.  My '80 Spitfire has it on the shifter, 
but Spitbits doesn't show a OD/non-OD shift knob difference until the 
single-rail gearbox which started in '74.

On reflection, I wonder if maybe OD wasn't even offered on the Mk3 
GT6.  It was never a popular option anyway.
