I am trying to determine if my manual 4spd shifter is correct for my OEM 72. It has a bend in the chrome shaft in the lower half (under the leather shift boot). Another Z-guy hasa told me it is not correct, should be a straight stick shift? I thought I read the Type B's were moved more forward on the frame and needed the bend for clearance. Any help/Knowledge or photo's on this is greatly appreciated!

No, yours is correct for your car. The straight stick was for the Type A 'box, which was only used through July or August '71 production. All '72s should have the Type B with bent lever.

Thank you ARNE for taking the time to clarify this for me. What a great site for support!
