This invention relates to the improvement in an anti-theft device for the gearshift lever of an automotive vehicle equiped with an automatic transmission. This device comprises a sleeve surrounding and firmly engaging a lower portion of the gearshift lever extending vertically upwardly through a slot opening of the flooorboard of the vehicle and is provided with a L-shaped latching member having a vertical arm being pivotally mounted in the sleeve and a horizontal arm which can be lowered into, concealed within and occupying the slot and a locking means having a semi-circular shaft partially intersecting the pivotal joint or hinge of the latching member thereof. The vertical arm is provided with a pair of arcuate notches at the hinge which can be brought to engage the shaft at either the lowered and a raised and upright position respectively. In either of these positions, the latching member can be locked therein by the turn of the shaft to provide the locking and unlocking functions of the anti-theft device.
