[T3] Update on my early Notch in the Shop!!! Early notch issues?

[Mike Fisher]

Since you are "open to any idea" I'm thinking of a lever clutch
(motorcycle style) on your shift lever.  You need your good leg for
braking really.  I had to lock up the brakes today behind a woman who
locked up her brakes, when the light turned yellow!   Don't worry or
apologize for making subtle changes to the car to make it safer for
you to drive!  They could all be reversed by the next owner.
