WTB: Shimano Z408 Shifters
Building up a bare frame for a friend and I have both derailleurs in that group but I'm missing the correct shifters. Prefer clamp-on but I can deal with braze-on. Thanks in advance.
Edit: Suppose I might include a photo of what they look like.
Humorously, this is the set I added to Velobase many years ago. Original equipment on a '84 Trek 400 that I did, and now I'm building another one.

the beauty of friction is that any friction shifters will work. I'd search more broadly for clamp on shimano shifters rather than try to match the exact component group. YMMV
