Post #13 reminded me that I "recurved" the shifter for my 1935 trans to get the top forward a little ways. When I shifted with the original shift lever shape, the knob was way back almost on the seats (Tudor). I was very careful about how I went to bend it but found out it was pretty easy to just muscle it with the base of the stick in a vise.
