Very nice console
 
5 Attachment(s)
This is a very nice restored cup holder console. It was completely stripped of paint, two 1/8" holes in the lower front filled and painted with Sem semi gloss black. I was going to use it but decided to go with a bench seat. The chrome trim does have some light rust & chrome flaking. You can get the chrome trim piece now after market.

$250 / bro + shipping.

Back up for sale, deal fell through. WIDESIDE72 has first shot if still interested. Also adding pics of seats.

GLWS...but does anyone know if there is something out there for us bench seaters in terms of cup holders or consoles?

There is a retractable cup holder that goes in place of the ashtray.

Im not aware of a retractable cup holder to be used in place of the ash tray. I have seen several that go in place of the ash tray, but it isnt retractable.

I thought they did, but I don't have first hand experience with them. My bad.

I also have a pair of blazer buckets to go with this !

I am interested in the seats and console. Any photos of seats? Price shipped to Leander Tx 78641?

nice console.
there IS a thread with that retractable cup holder somewhere......the ash tray is cannibalized in the process. very slick set up. I looked into it but I think its out of production.

Wideside72; Could you live an further away..... "LOL"
The seats are 71-72 from a Jimmy. They're stored in the loft of my shed. I don't have any pics, but could possibly get some if your really interested. It'd been a while since I've looked at them, so I'd need to check them out. From memory the pass seat was better than the ds, but that's normal. Both would need to be re-done. $250 for the seats, + $250 for the console. So $500 + shipping. Now the console wouldn't be any problem shipping, but I've never shipped seats. Do you, or anyone else know the best way to go about this and who to use for shipping ?

they stack well with brackets removed and one seat upside down on the other (L7) "L" being 1 seat and "7" the other. the hard part is finding the right size box. some say a U-HAUL wardrobe box is the perfect fit.
I can't say from personal experience. I have only received seats once...in a home made box. it was sent USPS and I have no clue on cost of shipping.

They make a cupholder/console that attaches to a bench seat with straps. Looks pretty decent.

So you know who makes it or where you saw it?

It seems that custom/10's for sale thread is turning into a cupholder discussion. Could we stay on subject?

Let me know what condition they are in and add some photos here if possible. Any ideawhat condition the foam is in? That makes a huge diffeence in valu, as new foam is $250+..

Good info. Thanks for the input. That is what i was going to suggest as well.

From what I remember the pass side foam wash good the dr side bottom needed work. Just to keep things clear, these item are also for sale locally and there has been interest. No commitments at this time.

I don't have pics of the seats at this time. Due to daylight savings time it's getting dark by the time I get home. So this weekend is probably the time I could get pics.

At this time I have a perspective buy for the console & seats that has someone in the local area that can pick these items up, eliminating the need for shipping. We're in the process of making the arangements, but if this deal falls through I'll post it here !

Adding Pics of seats. These came out of a 72 Jimmy. I believe the foams are salvageable. Backs are cracked, covers junk.

Wideside72 is next inline.

Re: Very nice console
 
Any ideas on shipping cost via the method nobolt mentioned?

I believe i have seen mentioned setting the console in between the seats to ship them.

I recently bought a factory heater delete set up that i dont need as much as i do a set of buckets. I need to do something with it but i dont see it being of ny interest toyou in your part of the country (?)

I would like to get in line, if $600 delivered could make it happen via Greyhound. Also, as nice a job you have done on that console I would package it separate from the seats.

Re: Very nice console
 
Wideside72 - Monday I'll get a shipping quote, I'll see if I can get it through where I work, they get better rates.

Budnikguy - Don't think I could do it for $600, lets see what I get for a quote for Wideside and go from there.

Re: Very nice console
 
Ok great...Lmk. Greyhound is a good alternative $ wise. Also, I have used appliance boxes to ship seats and they are fantastic.
