    Thanks Duane...I can't wait to get it. I'm hoping to need it for the spring. Let me know if you need my shipping address and I'll get a check to you.

    Dan,
    No problem, as soon as I get one to copy I will make them up. I will get your info once they are finished.

    I am posting the only one ( inner ring) I have to see if it is what the posters need before I release this one to you as the specimen. The reason is that I sent a tracing to a member and he raised a question if it is correct. I pesonally removed it from our GSX so I know it fits a consolette car. I am just guessing that perhaps a no console set up is different. Let me know and I will get it out by Friday. Guard it as it is due to go back it late Oct.

    Jim- I believe that is the retaining ring for the consolette. A rare piece indeed, but I think we're looing for the ring that goes around the hole in the floor.

    I used to have a picture of my non-consolette ring on this board, but the thread is gone - Damn hackers!

    My ring is different, and has roughly 7 - 10 screw holes...

    I suspected there was confusion over this and you have highlighted it very well.

    With a consolette there is a pot metal outer ring too that I have not shown.

    Jim, Do you have the floor boot & ring for your GSX.

    Jim,
    No, that is the ring for the upper boot from a console car. What everyone needs is the lower ring, which is the same whether you have a console or not.

    But you can forget about sending yours anyway, I have a local friend that is sending me his.

    PS. The one Scott pictured is the one that I am going to make.

    Does anyone reproduce or have an extra console upper boot ring that Jim posted a picture of?

    Guys,
    I have the original ring now, and plan on making the copies this weekend.

    I have all the rings made and all but one are going out tomorrow. (Waiting on an address for the last one.) I placed a note in each with payment instructions.
