We are currently restoring a 1971 Dodge charger super bee .... it real  not a clone...
Factory 340 with 727 automatic .... floor/center console shifter...
It was parked in the woods .... everything was mostly there, as far as the body went, however the engine bay was completely bare, also transmission was gone...
SO we found a 71 340 block .... stroked it because why not lol.... got a 727 and had it gone thru and a shift kit put in it and a stronger sprag...
I have tons of pics up on Facebook of it... if y'all want I can post a link to that...

Anyways... as for my question...
Does anybody have a blow apart diagram of the shifter?? .... it's the factory shifter.. not sure exactly what its called, the guys are calling it a slap shifter... it  a t- handle if that matters... lol

Its definitely been a challenge trying to restore this thing but I'm learning... lol
T.i.a.

Google "slapstick shifter diagram" images and several come right up. One of them is right from the factory service manual.

1972 Charger, Grand Sport #41
1973 Charger "T/A"

I believe a member on here or on moparts.com makes a custom shifter Auto grip, instead of the T-handle that falls apart in your hand.
