It stands for Economy, and '84 was the last and only year for it (I think- '83 and earlier had a different shift knob). If you want to trade for a non-E one, I'd like to add it to my car.
The 5 speed emblem was only on for mid-1981 and 1982 with the introduction of (you guessed it) the five speed gearbox. I am fortunate enough to have one on my '88 as a present after going automatic to manual with it. As a substitute, my convertible has the shift pattern map emblem thingy from a junkyard shift knob mounted between the rear license plate and tail light, sort of a disclaimer to people who follow very closely and nearly rear-end me between gears, and as a commentary against automatics.
