35cz8 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I have a 1935 Chrysler CZ DeLuxe 8 and am wondering if anyone knows where I can get the gear shift knob restored to original. It is not just a plain knob, it has an intricate design in it and I want to keep it original. Thanks.Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpage Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Contact Don Eash at D&D Automobilia @ 336-429-2188. He recasts steering wheels and knobs; he made me new dash knobs and window crank knobs for my '36 Dodge. He does beautiful work, I'm sure he could reproduce your knob. If that number doesn't work let me know and I can get the correct one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
35cz8 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Thanks for that lead and the number, I will try and call him. I will also need the steering wheel for the Chrysler and my 1936 Dodge RS cp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36 D2 Coupe Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Bob - I might have a steering wheel that will work for the '36 Dodge if I can get it off the column. PM meJim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dwight H. Bennett Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Bob:The gearshift handle restoration is probably the exact kind of work I do, depending on the quality you want. If it has intricate details on it, you probably don't just want a plating company doing it, they can do irreparable damage and hand it back to you freshly chromed! Could you put up a picture of it?~Dwightwww.RarePartsForRareCars.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
35cz8 Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 Dwight, Here are a couple pictures of the 1935 CZ shift knob. As you can see, the horn button and the shift knob have the same pattern for the inset. I would like to be able to get them both restored to new condition if possible. Pictures are from the internet, not mine.Thank you for your interest.BobBob:The gearshift handle restoration is probably the exact kind of work I do, depending on the quality you want.

Guest Dwight H. Bennett Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Bob:The horn button does not have the Airflow logo on it like earlier Airflows?Is the horn button "merely" painted metal in the center, surrounded by plastic or metal?And the shift knob, is that metal or plastic or both in combination?If you can show me a close up of your horn button and your shift knob (regardless of condition), I can probably determine more of what I need to know than the pictures you've found above.Thanks,Dwight Bennett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
