[Healeys] Someone just got a GREAT Tricarb for a steal

[Simon Lachlan]

This takes us back to the previous thread!
I forget when, at what number, but Mk IIs started off with sideshifts (cranked gear levers) and moved on to centre shifts (shorter/centralized/further back).

They were standard on MK2 sideshifts.

I have one of those cranked shift levers, I'm sure someone on the list must know if they were an option, or standard on certain cars etc.
