71 Cutlass Console (Automatic)

From one olds fan to another. I am in need of you help and advice again. I have a 71 Cutlass convertible and I want to change my column shifter to a floor shifter and I am in need of a center console but I don't want to pay the outrageous prices I have seen for one in the past. I also want to replace the seats with something more modern and comfortable. Does anyone know the dimensions of the front buckets as well as the rear convertible seats? Or maybe even give me an idea of what seats will fit in the front and rear of a 71 cutlass convertible. Also if you have pictures of any conversions please share if you don't mine, I have been going around with this one for a moment and have decided to make a change but the console and seats have been a big issue to figure out.

If you're willing to put different seats in the car, why not a different (less expensive) console from another car? Maybe one that has some perks like cup holders etc.

I am open to using a different console as long as it connects or reaches the dash. I am really trying to stay away from alot of additional fabrications. But I am open to any and all suggestions if you have any.
