Looking for any suggestions on console ideas for my 68 AT console. I am not a fan of the burlwood or walnut grain OER options. Looking for black and/or paintable options. There are many options out there and I am looking to current owners and their experiences with other than stock. Please send pics or suggested places to look into. Thanks to all! Dino.
Unfortunately not easy. If you are using stock shifter the 67&68 a/t shifters are different and the top shifter bezel plate mounts are different, and also mount differently. The 68 burlwood is actually a set of tin plates with studs that pretty much mount through drilled holes and sit on top of a 67 style console. The 68 shifter bezel plate mounts on top of this while the original 67 style was a 2 piece designed bezel that mounted to the console underneath the 68 tin plates. If using aftermarket shifters and boots I am sure you could figure something out. I mostly like my stuff original but I get what your saying about the simulated wood grains and have seen a few 7's with the top of the console painted the interior color that looked real sharp.
