Subject:      Shift Lever Broke
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

It's always something with a VW, I went to shift my 86 syncro and off came
the shift lever, cheap metal broke near the bottom, shoved a screw driver in the
hole and searched for first gear to get it home, luckily close to home!

What's a good inexpensive fix for this? A used shift lever, is it easy to
change? I did change the plastic ball at the bottom of the lever a few years ago.
TIA!

I have a 71 Westy for 500 bucks for sale, no motor, but everything else
works, near Albany, NY. Needs TLC.

Andy
