Most likely some one blew up the original Hemi and it was replaced with another. Not the original engine, but the 'correct' engine. Not a big deal for most Mopar collectors. Hemi 'cudas (Not Barracuda) are rare, but this is at least a decimal place off. Hemi Superbirds and Daytonas are not bringing that kind of money.

The 'Pistol Grip' hsifter is from Hurst. I have the same with a different handle (think Ape Hangars with an original lever in a Cobra) and it works great. Not like an internal rail by any means, but...
