Jim,
Do you have a similar photo(s) of the shifter and heater control knob areas for your '57 T1?

thanks,
i'm replacing a "tower shifter" in my Speedster with an original shifter. Just want to make sure all the pieces are there and in the correct position when I'm done.

Im getting ready to tackle the tunnel.
Any thoughts on fabricating this cover and what goes in it?
