I finally got my hands on a 63 'Banana' shifter, but I need some help.

Mine has been hacked off on the bottom roughly 3-4 inches, I think, not sure as it's hacked off.

Long shot, looking for someone who has one and can make a pattern and mail it to me.

Got a pic off ebay of one pictured next to a tape measure.
Took that image and drew a pattern, but not very accurate.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

1st pic is mine, 2nd is from ebay.

That would be a correct 63 only T85 shifter handle & my guess is the bottom.got cut due to it being a dashboard knuckle crusher. You might want to try it as is unless you need it for a correct restored car.
Here's a picture of one I just recently sold.

Way too short, surprisingly too short.
Not for a restoration, just want to put it in my 62.

Pic does not illustrate how short it is, bottom of current handle is hidden in the boot by about 3" below the cut off Banana.

I probably still have a few shifters left I'll check when I get back home in a few weeks.
