I have a Harms in my Barracuda, and so does the Challenger (*gasp  i mentioned the overhaulin challenger  :misbehaving:*)..

Anyway, i drove on my harms for a good year daily, love it. Very solid part, also no stupid trigger like a Gunslinger.

Harms. Customs take years, literally, but it's not Scotts fault, they're made in Cuba? Or somewhere down south.
Good quality just slow work ethic in that area. I think he doesn't take custom orders anymore because they take so long to make them. Just the normal grips sold now. They feel real good and make the interior complete IMO.

We got one of the customs from Scott (Harms) before he stopped making them and we love it.  We always get compliments on the shifter (and we always hand out his cards).

Speaking of which, scott you might want to send out some cards . . .for when the 'unspoken' challenger is shown somewhere. :misbehaving: :bigshades:

I have the trigger version with the carbon fiber look and I love it. 
I can get photos if anyone needs to see it.

How does the Harms lock into each gear?

You push down on the whole assembly to get in/lock in gear. Works just like a factory gated slap-stick.

it is very slick. there is a base that slides over the stock shifter you put a included spring on, slide the handle over the stock shifter and it has a slot in it that the factory retaining screw, screws into. Which keeps the shifter up, when you push down, it pushes the spring and lever down on the stock shifter (riding down the slot). i hope that makes sense, you can see the slot...kinda above where the retaining screw is. :bigsmile:

Shelby saw the one Harms has in Panther Pink. We were wondering if it would work in a 93 Daytona?
