carnut222 OK, as part of the disassembly of my 81 parts car 245 I was going to save the gear lever surround since it looks OK. How Do you remove the gear knob? It's an auto with no OD button. I levered up the plastic push button and that seemed to break off bits near the spring retainer. I'm thinking just bash the crap out of the knob in an upward direction? Funny the manual knobs usually fly off on the 1-2 or 3-4 upshift and end up in the back seat!
jamesinc I've done this before, if I recall you do indeed give it a few love taps to the underside of the knob. Edit: actually, I think rather than hitting it, you have to just pull on it really hard and twist it back and forth to work it loose.
Major Ledfoot Nope. This is the tried and true method. https://forums.tbforums.com/showpost.php?p=3686651&postcount=7
