SECTION 3 - INTERIOR
Gearshift Lever and Knob
The gearshift lever is painted black. Some owners have
indicated that their car's gearshift lever was chrome but
no part number is listed in the 1956 Parts Catalog. A
chrome gearshift lever, part number 1540687, is shown
for 1956 Commanders and Presidents.
The gearshift lever knob is painted black. It is a
threaded type and was used on all 1956 and 1957
Studebakers. In 1958, a press type knob was
introduced.
