I have found a 66-70 style console with what looks like factory upholstery. The vinyl is very tight and it looks great. It's a light tan color with matching carpet in the area below the trim pieces on the side (where the carpet is suposed to be).

Was this possibly a stock application?

Thanks.

The 68 Sport Fury that I ordered/bought new had carpet.

I don't think he is talking about the carpet. I believe they all came with that.
I think he means the light green above the chrome where the carpet stops.
I do not ever recall seening that before.

That is what I am taking about. Sorry I wasn't clear on that.

I'll tell you this console looks VERY factory.

I was wondering if it was out of a New Yorker or a 300 possibly.

Thanks again.

300's were as I said, plastic finish, also had seat belt clips screwed to the top of the back and a cig. lighter in the rear panel. Never seen a console in a New Yorker, but every console I have seen was just plastic finished.

I parted a `67 new yorker with console/leather buckets. No vinyl on it. I was around lots of those cars when they were new and never saw one like that. The top plates only had a ribbed, brushed aluminum or woodgrain finish.

Thanks for all or your replies.

When I get it home I will look at it more carefully and get some better pictures.

It has the black and woodgrain top plates.
