Elan shifter

[Michael and Betty Braun <elan66@ccia.com>]

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the rubber bushed shifter was
introduced as the "anti-sizzle shifter". I think the object was to
isolate the driver from direct inputs of gear selection, noise and
vibration. Kind of the opposite of what we want, yes? I used the rubber
shifter for many years, and liked it UNTIL I put in the ultra close box
and direct shifter. It is hard to imagine a nicer gearbox/shifter, if
only I could stop reaching for fifth.....;)
