loooooooooooooool

 

Sequential shifter, not a sequential transmission. Still have to use the clutch for all up shifts and down shifts.

Shit's getting real with that sequential! Nice!

 

In for updates. This is a really nice build. Looking forward to videos and high res photos of the finished product.

 

Several re-postings to go plus lots of new stuff OTW. We will shoot lots of new updated shots and video of the Colonel when we are finished. Thanks for the support.

Chicken Coupe...
Time to wire in some of the new hardware (SQS and Shift Light).

First we have to remove the rear interior trim and carpet to access the wiring loom, from there the real fun begins.

 

Making progress on "The Colonel", here are a few quick images of the sequential shifter components being installed under the car...

The unit is assembled directly onto the gearbox.
An electromagnetic support is employed as soon as the unit is brought out of neutral-idling range has been placed between each gear.

Safe and quick shifting capabilities are the result.
In addition, a microprocessor control unit is installed on the passenger side with slight modification to the shifting block.

Gear changes that are fast and safe result from the design.
The shifter requires hardly any getting used to: the traditional H-pattern gear scheme is replaced with a fixed, linear gear scheme.

Shifting up is as simple as pull and downshifting depressing the gear lever. The built-in electromagnetic support is employed automatically upon shifting above neutral and the desired gear engaged. Shifting times are programmed according to engine speed.

The employed gear is shown on a readable and dimmable digital display installed on the instrument panel."R" representing the reverse gear, "O" the neutral or idling range and the numbers "1" - "6" the engaged gear.

We'll post more images as we continue...

 

Is it just me or would that chicken head make a cool shift knob?
