Paisa el Toro Posted June 4, 2010 Group: Member Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 10,380 Reputation: 1,058 Days Won: 18 Joined: 08/11/2003 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I'm still in the process of having my 1973 VW Superbeetle completely restored. I can officially announce that it's now USF green on the outside, and the interior is a combination of oatmeal colored carpeting and brown and tan panels and original stock vinyl. It's starting to look amazing, and I'm now shifting into getting the details just right. In that regard, I've tried searching online, but I've been unable to stumble upon a USF-themed shift knob. Does anyone know where I can get a 12 mm shift knob for my soon-to-be Bull Bug? If one exists out there, please let me know, as I'd rather go that route than get something specially made. By the way, if things keep progressing, I may have the Bull Bug ready for football season. Any help on finding a 12mm USF shift knob, is appreciated.

That creative car concepts website looks intriguing, I'll keep them in mind in the event I still want to do a USF-themed shift knob. Thanks for your suggestions.
