Hello list,

Several months ago the topic of some unusual shift levers on a new list member's late 60's PX-10 came up. Sorry but I can't remember the list members involved, but most of the dialog took place "off-list". None of the members involved could properly ID the levers. Searching eBay tonight I came across the following auction:

http://ebay.com/<blah>

This is an example of the same levers. Has anyone on the list seen this type of lever before? Could the levers be an unknown version of the CRITERIUM/PRESTIGE levers offered in the late 60's?

Just thought I would ask.

Take care,
