This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration.

    I have restored this console and shifter for use in your 70 71 72 GS or Skylark. The pot metal indicator plate has been re-chromed the plastic body is crack free and no pieces are missing. I prefer not to ship this having found how rough shippers can be. I will deliver for free, to GS Nationals in Bowling Green May 12th 13th The wood grain has been replaced , the stainless removed cleaned and a 3 step polish applied. The console storage area has been cleaned and re-flocked. The shifter has been disassembled cleaned , glass 16198144842403378859746321391408.jpg beaded painted and lubed where necessary. With new chrome parts replacing used or broken origional 16198143631723948876811121810666.jpg 16198143631723948876811121810666.jpg I will advertise here till Saturday night 5-1-21 if not sold I will advertise on Facebook as well. If not sold by the Nationals I will offer shipping at the buyers expense. Price is $875.00. I may consider a console or shifter as a trade in as partial payment. I will sell the Console separately , but not the shifter. I can send more pictures if requested. Tony 16198150847458097686650155197781.jpg

    Not inline but that's beautiful - If I had a car that needed it I'd gladly take it @ that price.

    Thanks Dano it's the best one I have done to date. I am surprised just how many parts and time goes into getting one to look this nice. I have a black Console I am working on restoring next.

    Brian, and Dr Phil have passed they would prefer a black console so this is available for delivery to Bowling Green.
    I would consider your console, shifter or parts as a partial trade. Bump TTT Tony
