Center Console - Oldsmobile 442 1971 Automatic
Hi guys.
I would like to improve the condition of the center console of my 1971 Oldsmobile 442.
I will soon remove the floor upholstery to clean up that area, so it may be a good time to see what the center console needs and leave it in optimal condition.
I leave you a couple of photos of the external state of the gear shift area.
Also, I have seen in other olds that the shift travel is covered.
The gray bezel is not in very good condition either, you can see it in the photo.
What do you recommend I do to improve it and get it as close as possible to how it came out of the factory?
Thanks in advance.
Regards

you can buy most parts needed at H&H including the chrome top plate, gear indicator lens and high quality wood grain inserts. If you want to touch up the paint SEM landau black is a spot on match to the factory color and sheen.

I found this site. It has a good diagram but I have no experience with the seller. Looks like item 25 is the one you are missing.

Possibly with the websites you send me could be enought to fix the center console of my 442.
I will let you know when I will buy all the items.
