What is this?

[pav225]

I need some help...I think this is a "pipe puller" for Mod/Pro. Can anyone help confirm?

Thanks for your help.

gear shift?

may be a gear shifter for someone using a foot throttle on an opc type rig?

What is this

Aluminum and a human hand.

I'm pretty sure the large round outer cable anchor indicates pleasure use over racing ... might be a shift lever to use with foot throttles

whats it for??

I think Sam is on the right track. Looks like a shift lever for an "in/out" gearbox or such used on an inboard possibly? Doesn't look like it would have enough travel, if it is not much larger than it looks, to be a forward/neutral/reverse lever.

I have never seen anything like that used as a PRO pipe puller. Usually something for that type use is much more "hand" friendly, and would mount more easily by the throttle.

Jet boats

Friend of mine had a 18' jet boat w/ blown 426 hemi. He had a lever that looked like that for the swing gate to "shift" forward reverse.

Don't know what the part is, but look at that hand! Have you ever thought of becoming a hand model, Mike? You're better than George Costanza!

That can't be Mikes hand there's no epoxy on it. He's got a new 20 boat on the jig...
