I reached into my box of stuff and found i have two sets of 4sp shifters. I'm planning on installing one of them on my late 65. I know there is a difference between 65 mid year and shark shifters. I don't know what the differences are. From a more practical standpoint what I really need is a way to tell if these shifters are correct for my 65. They may both be correct or both for a shark. i just don't know. Any help out there in how to ID. Just to make things a little more interesting, the T handles are missing on both.

The main difference between 64-67 and 68+ shifter assemblies is the length of the shifter lever. The 68+ are about 1" longer. However, I don't recall the actual lengths of the 2 arms. However, if you compare the 2 you have and they have different length arms, the shorter one is for the mid-year.In Appreciation of John Hinckley- Top

The 68-76 shifter lever is 8-7/16" from the center of the pivot pin to the top of the shifter knob threads. Also, it is 6-7/8" from the top of the square base to the top of the threads.In Appreciation of John Hinckley- Top
