[quoteif you would have read my post you would have saw that I said I got it I.E. the console from a friend whom had it in his 70 duster for 20-25 years before he changed everything out to a 4 speed.

I got that part, my error was that I thought that was a picture of it in HIS car before it was removed, not yours.

Consoles were cut (front) like that for dealer/add-on air. Factory air cleared just fine. With the evidence of the cardboard it is clear to me that the base was originally from a four speed car.

This is just a point of reference for anybody interested, not a criticism. The black console above looks too shiny in the flash photo - maybe it looks less glossy in natural light.

The FSMs all say low gloss paint for the consoles. Compare the black one to my green console above which is showing the factory original low gloss paint in natural light.

Low gloss is not to be confused with the suede finish on the dash and steering column.

I am sure that it is the camera flash from being taken inside the car and not out in the light. I see no signs of it being re sprayed. Also no sign of paint on what is left of the cardboard under the screw from the side cover.
