Wanted Mk1 Cortina GT shifter or measurements

G'day all,
Picked up a gearbox  for my car today but its missing the gearstick...
Does anyone have a lever for the Mk1 remote setup?
 
OR
 
The measurement and a couple of photo's of one? The remote came with a bush kit so it wouldn't be to hard to make the stick and link, just got no idea what length to make it.
Cheers Drew

    Ok so just need the measurement now.
    Using the non remote stick I welded a tab on the bottom and straightened it out. Picks up all of the gears. I've given it a bit of a bashing and its held up no worries. Looks a bit rallycross at the moment, the inner hot rodder in me says put a skull knob on it and drive her like Rat Fink
    Last job will be to cut the tread for the knob when I get final length.
    Cheers Drew

    short?
    Isn't shorter better? (opposite of most things? )
    Glad you could fix it, good ingenuity.
     
    Don't forget the spider gearknob either...
