1967-1968 Ford Mustang C4 Automatic Shifter Repair

Over the years, I’ve come across some interesting repairs on classic Ford Mustangs, but this is ones is the most creative one I’ve ever seen. This shifter was on a 1967 Mustang with a C4 Cruisa-a-matic automatic transmission. When an automatic transmission shifter feels like a manual transmission shifter, there is a serious problem. The bushings were worn completely away, and destroyed the main shaft beyond repair. The owner thought he could tighten it up by wrapping two springs around the shifter arm, and connect them to a bracket he had made. If a shifter gets that bad, repair it the correct way, or replace it.1967 Mustang Automatic Shifter
