I was driving my Datsun today and the crazyest thing happened, the shift lever broke off in my hand.

So I pulled over and without undoing my seat belt I was able to fix it by sliding my wheel lock key over the broken stub sticking out of the tranny.When I got where I was going I removed the shift knob and installed it onto the 1/2 inch long piece of shifter I had left. Done!

I remember when short shifters were all the rage on Datsuns. Nice job Tim!
