Subject: Re: Auto gear shift knob
Always happy to help, if you have not thrown it away, please put the damaged gear knob away safely.
I am not sure, however, that this was a "Lagonda item", don't forget that auto transmission was never available for any of the earlier DB Lagonda's from 1947-58.
Which raises the quesion, were any DB4's or DB5's fitted with this style steering column change ? I know that the automatic was an option, but never saw too many, please do correct me if I am wrong. We, only had manual transmission AM's at home.
I suppose the other place to look is the cars where the 3-speed B&W slush boxes were fitted in the same period, with steering column change. A few cars spring to mind such as the Jaguar Mk 9 and 10, related Daimlers, Rover P5, Alvis TD-TF21, Rootes Company, BMC, AMC etc amongst others. I will take a look and see what I find...
ASD are always helpful, and I am pleasantly surprised by the number of small and obscure parts that they still hold.
