Miss Hurst Shifter was a featured speaker at the Macungie "Wheels of Time" Street Rod & Custom Car annual jamboree. I was there with my car by invitation to be part of a race car exhibit. There was always a long line of fans waiting to get her autograph. While many walked away with autographs I was probably the only one there to get her to pose with a car. I located a group of show committee officials and proposed my idea to ask for the photos. With their clearance, I then pulled my car within 10 feet of her and asked her for the photo op when she got a break in the action. She said she would if my car met two criteria. In a loud voice she then said "Is that a big block?" I said yes of course. The second question was "You Do have a Hurst Shifter in it ..... Don't You??". I hollered back "I would not have asked if it didn't". She laughed, walked over, and we got the photos.

Cool pics Geary, I met Linda years ago at SEMA Las Vegas, Paul Petersen was with us and he and Linda have known each other since the 60's, I wish I had taken pics back then.

Hot Rod magazine ran an article on the original HURST Oldsmobile 442 a few months back. The article included a couple of pictures of Linda. She is probably 5-years older than I, but seems to be holding "things" up better than I!

You lucky dog. But you don't have a Hurst shifter in your car. Liar

[Aggressor]

Tony ... It's true.
Aggressor carries a clearance modified Hurst Competition Plus below deck.
Topside the bent shifter, ring, and rubber boot are from Dan Williams Toploaders.

That is why I was so convincing when I responded in a clear, firm, and righteous voice to her question.
