Well, a couple guys got the inside joke.
Center Console
- Thread starter Duke5A
- Start date
Installing a console into either my Fifth Ave or into my station wagon is not on my radar.
That said, if I did, it would be in my Fifth Ave, in a manner as mentioned (finding another passenger (40%) seat and putting it in driver’s location (to replace the 60%). I would then find a ’66-70 B-body console and install it – for it it's design I like, personally.
It doesn’t blend into the Fifth Ave interior as well as it might, but I do like the chrome as well as the flat top. Also, all B-body console parts are being repop’ed.
It doesn't fit in the OP's desire, but I would think an early 70's B or E-body console would look decent
for F and M-body's, maybe.
Personally, I miss not having a cup holder. The Cheap things to fit on the transmission tunnel are useless for holding drinks (in place). One bump or turn, and drink is now part of carpet . . .
