I hope I'm in the right section, this is an "interior" item.
My question is, how do you remove the column shifter handle from the column? It looks like it's held on by a rivet to a "rod/shaft"...I don't know how to remove the rivet , if that's what it is, and if I did get it off, do I then have to find a new rivet somewhere?
It's a 1951 3100 three on the tree.
Thanks in advance.
Brad.

There are two small buttons (they look like rivets), held in position by an internal hairpin-like spring.
Push them inward at the same time and pull the shifter handle off.

Be careful when you take it apart because those "buttons" are under pressure from the spring and will go flying.
