Throttle Shift Control
Missing one wooden handle.
The lever with the wood handle has 1 1/2" of play.
One of the frame tabs is broken off, but the frame is still very solidly attached to mounting base, see first photo.
The shift switch has been tested and checks good.
With a little work this control would be ready for service. The missing handle could be replaced and the lever with play could be tightened up.

AC Cobra Mk VI to show at Monaco
Mon, 13 Apr 2009AC is due to show the AC Cobra MK VI at the Top Marques Show in Monaco Despite being a UK car maker, AC is to build the new Cobra MK VI in Germany, at Gullwing GmbH, which gives a clue to the car’s unique feature – a removable hard top with gullwing doors. The AC Cobra has a long history, and is one of the most sought after replica cars on the market (which is hardly surprising considering the cost of an original Cobra), and is said to be single handedly responsible for the UK’s national 70mph speed limit, which was brought in after some extremely high-speed incidents on the new M1, where AC was testing its cars. Why bother with a test track when you have 100 miles of fresh, straight tarmac courtesy of H.M.
