I have had this for ages, bits of it here bits of it there, I pulled it off of a mk1 wagon back in the 90's. I have at this point lost the little fiberglass bucket that screwed over the magic wand shifter hole to cover the linkage but I am not so worried as it wasn't a functional part of it.
My Question, Who Made it? And what was the product? Well other then a shift kit for a magic wand transmission that is

thats neat as it doesnt need two holes hacking in the floor like the spqr one does - yours looks as if it would go underneath and come through the 'normal' remote hole

Yes it fit right up where the remote shifter would go, it does require 4 holes drilled for the guide mount to bolt on. The biggest snafu I have seen probably is the front bit sticks up through the magic wand hole. Not far, maybe an inch.

It looks very similar to my gear linkage for my 67 Cox GTM

I don't know, I tried to get it to work years ago but couldn't make it shift cleanly.. Granted that was then, I could probably make it work now, but I don't have any car to use it in currently unless I cut the floor for remote shifters! I thought it was neat though, that's why I held on to it.
