New pistol grip shifter for autos

*I posted this elsewhere but might be more appropriate here* link- http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=76252
Since Barton Industries has announced them, I will give some info and Impressions. I was given the opportunity to test mule Barton's new automatic pistol grip style shift unit that replaces the 19th century dildo that we have presently. It replaces all the working parts of the present knob with billet aluminum parts. There is no shift release button, you simply push down on the grip to engage/disengage. I tested the final version with them yesterday and it is awesome. Looks great, feels solid and like it was meant to be there in the first place. The knob/grip is similar to their pistol grip manual knob but it stops there. They did the R&D specifically for the automatic to maximize ergonomics. I wish I had some pics of the complete unit but It went with the rest to anodizing. I added a pic of the manual pistol grip to get an idea of what the knob portion will look like. They will be available at Camarofest at the Barton Industries booth. Oh, and check out his 625hp SS while ur there. Holy snot is that thing brutal! http://bartonindustries.com/
