Black 70-72 Console Restored
I just finished this. Very nice driver condition. It has a new liner. The hinge was repaired with four screws into the plastic the same way 70post suggested in this thread:

Console was originally light brown. The holes were filled there the previous owner drilled through the housing. I did not glue the plastic hinge mount, just bolted it back so if the hinge ever needs to be repaired again it can easily be accessed. There is a scratch across the front up where the console will be under the dash. If someone wants to take the restoration a little further I used SEM Landau Black so it's easily matched.
The harness is included but the wiring appears to have at least one issue as the interior light bulb socket is missing a wire. I'm assuming the white wire is supposed to go to it but I wasn't sure so I figured I'd let the new owner figure it out. Latch functions fine but I do not have a key for it.

I found this console locally on Craigslist for a good price and I bought it with the intention of flipping it.
I've been so busy on boating stuff I haven't had time to do much of anything with Olds stuff. I just sold an 83 Sea Ray Sundancer we've had for 17 years and bought a 97 Sea Ray Bowrider. I bought two boats last year (both bowriders) with the intention of restoring one of them. It turns out both were POS. I've been busy parting them out this whole spring to fund the new boat.

The addiction extends to boats too...wow. Had no idea you were Nautically inclined. I've never owned a boat, but found a lot of fun in water skiing...was never good, just good enough not to drink the entire lake.

Is this item still available?
