Thinking about putting a 2002 Camaro center console in the 68...

what do you think? this will just be the console, not the whole dash.

here's a pic of the full interior inside a 69, from one of our members.

HAHA Steve, you're such a pusher!! LOL

Seriously though, do you have more pics? I'd really like to know how it all fit and where i need to trim and fabricate stuff.

Honestly, the more pics the better! :D

email me at [email protected] and I will see what I can send ya..

I didn't have to trim anything on the console.. just welded a couple brackets to the center hump and welded some bosses to the hump so I could use the factory shifter. Then just needed to fab up the transition to the dash..

Voila!

There are some great pics on Year Ones site if you find the build shots of their Innovator Camaro..

Hey, I like spending other peoples money.. lol

You were right, to be honest, i'm still a fiberglass newbie and it came out wavy and didnt look right to me... it was a good piece. Just had to learn from my mistakes.
