they are kinda reproduced..the early chevelle and skylark work..skylark is a direct interchange til 72

64-67 repop chevelle is so close, its an easy trim to fit and run it..i kept on ebay til i found a new repop for 20..i laid my rusty one on and its nearly perfect..i just opened up the hole, and bent the lip..and trimmed it til it looked right..easy peasy

Hey Mark! Hope all is well... The very outer edge of my "hump" rotted slightly with the floor. I think I can weld a new edge on it... However, if some one had a complete one, it would save me some time.
Thanks for the advice!

Google search for the chevelle hump. Mine brand new was I think 29.00 last winter. Notice edge of hole needs to be trimmed for the main bolt access. Boot covers it well. This is on my 1964 Skylark 455/4 speed build. Bill

Overall, my original 4 speed tunnel is OK... The floor rotted out and took some of the edge with it. I somehow either have to replace it, weld some material on or cut a smaller section of floor... Take a look at the pics and let me know what your thoughts are.. Thanks!

Seems you could save the hump if its solid enough to weld to...

Nice Job Mike! Mine was a 3 on the tree so I had to start with measurements "in the air". I had to have the motor and trans in for "mock up" , then run a bell hanger drill up along the shifter mount plate to locate where I was going from there. I felt like a jack in the box that day!

The best youre gonna be able to do, is place it where you like it, Trace around it and then make an inner tracing for cutting, remembering where you want to put the fasteners of your choice at. Go for the gusto, and try to get into all good steel. Dont forget to put some paint on the new edge etc... Bill

Nope. I did cut my remaining hump out. You can see the bottom end is rotted away...
