A cream puff... She's a beauty.

I like the look of the leather shifting boot a lot better than my "84" Michelin Man bellows type.

Also you might improve the shifting by replacing the nylon bushings at the bottom of the shifter, plus getting an after market shift coupler. You probably need to have another experienced "P" owner drive your car to see if that's the problem before jumping in and replacing parts that you don't need.
