1962 3 Speed shifter stick?

[JPrusinows]

Anybody running a 62 Bench seat with T85 3 speed? What shifter stick are you using? Mine sits almost on the seat when in 3rd gear, don't like it. I have the seat moved up so as not to have to stretch to depress the clutch (very comfortable) but seat is too close to shifter or vicey versa.

Picas appreciated!

Happy Holidays.

Might have to heat it below the boot and bend it away some. Then you'll probably be hitting your knuckles on the dash. Loosening the bolts and maybe getting some play might be enough.

My bucket seat is all the way back and I'm a little scrunched for leg room. Like to have another inch or two and I'm only 5' 7" and shrinking.
