1969 Camaro Chromed Automatic Shifter Plate on 2040-parts.com

Up for auction is a chromed 1969 Camaro floor shifter plate.  What makes this item unique – is that I didn’t like the wood-grain look that comes with these shifter plates, so when I bought the plate, I had it resurfaced and chromed. 

 

The item is good quality – had no issues with it.  Bought it for a rebuild of a 1969 Camaro.  The car was set up for automatic transmission.  However, after having the car on the road for about 300 miles I decided to upgrade the engine and since I was doing that – also change it to manual transmission.  So this item didn’t see much use.

 

One note – when I purchased this plate, it was indicated as only for a 1969 Camaro.  While I can’t confirm this, I believe the only difference between the 1968 and the 1969 shifter plate was the style of wood grain trim, which I ended up removing and chroming anyway – so I would think it would fit both a 1968 and a 1969 Camaro.  That being said, since I never had this in a 1968 Camaro, I can’t confirm that the shifter plate will fit in a 1968 Camaro.

Last Lexus LFA leaves Motomachi Plant

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

The very last Lexus LFA – LFA #500 – has left the Motomachi Plant in Japan two years after production started and three years after the LFA was revealed. The idea of a Lexus supercar that cost so much seemed barking mad, but the LFA turned out to be a very special car indeed, not just for its build and performance but for what it meant for Lexus and Toyota – a future that would encompass many of the LFA’s design cues and DNA in future mainstream models. But three years after the LFA debuted, and exactly two years after the LFA went in to production at the TMC dedicated production facility at the Motomachi Plant, Aichi Prefecture, the last LFA – a white LFA Nurburgring Package #500 – has left the building.
