I really like it...It's pretty cool looking! I've had the white Cue Ball Hurst shifter in many cars.
How's the rest of the 'Vette coming along?

not doing a whole lot to it now, mostly resurrecting the jeep, complete brake job including front discs on the rambler, alternator on the fairlane tonight.

after all that's done the chevette will maybe get new wheels and tires then refurbish the door panels and other cosmetic stuffs.

Ack! Every wire is a ground!


Ok, I'm over it. But it will make troubleshooting difficult.

Oh, you mean because of the unoccupied ground hole in the pcb? There's another on the right side that the center post in the 3PDT foot switch is connected to. It's all good.

No, every wire is green (ground). In case of a problem, having every wire one colour makes circuit tracing challenging.
