Ordered the barton Short Throw Shifter. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

OK I went and did it. Placed my order with Dave at Barton. Dave was great to work with he answered all of my questions.

Great place to deal with. I placed my order and got a shipped response within hours. Man did they ever ship fast.

It is scheduled to be here on Friday. Hmmmmm, wonder what I'll be doing on Friday now???????

I really like how it works. The feel is just beautiful. Just love it

Mechanical yet smooth and crisp. I can now shift with the wrist not the whole arm like the stock one. I highly recommend this shifter. Quality is great. Directions easy and clear. No guessing or questions at all.

The look is perfect for my taste too! Just look how well it works with the interior.
Thanks Dave. You make a great product and at a very reasonable/affordable price.

Will be ordering mine soon. Can you tell me if the engraving on the ball is included in the price on the site, or do they charge extra for that? Hoping to pay 200 + shipping including the engraving for the flat stick with SS ball. Thanks.

You get a few choices that are included in the price. Check out their web site, it has drop down boxes to make choices. (where choices are available).

Love mine. Quick install,looks great and works like a champ! Plus, it was under the $250.00 mark!

Jarhead · 04-22-2010, 07:50 PM

Got it put in. I'll post pictures tomorrow. Going to a local drag strip to see how they operate. Never been to this one so I want to see it in operation first.

More later!!!!

Dave shipped mine out very quickly as well so I could install it before the Fest. After using it if you get in a car with a stock shifter you will feel like your shifting a complete slush box lol. I love mine and I think I will be switching handles here soon just to switch it up. Right now I have the flat stick on but it is a little tall to my liking but I just love the way it looks.
