hmm...that blue one sure looks familiar!

PT'S 70 CST · 09-24-2007, 06:30 PM

More pics

PT'S 70 CST · 09-24-2007, 06:35 PM

A few more

PT'S 70 CST · 09-24-2007, 06:43 PM

I will try and do a few more of these before it starts getting cold, I do not like to try and paint them once it gets cold. The one with the custom bowtie is something I am going to try and make some more of. I made about 5 of these emblems and then I made two pretty girls so that kinda took up alot of my time. Three kids all under the age of 5 will try your nerves.
But it is all worth it.

Ok...I am going to show my lack of knowledge. My 70cst has the none cup holder console. Which console was for which years? Or was the difference in the vehicle such as blazer verses a truck?

The seat belt style ran through 76 i think and the cupholder ran til 80.

Thanks!

PT

crzngmychvy · 09-24-2007, 09:47 PM

no sure don't but it looks dang good in my formal dining room!

Took killer to 68 short step shortly after getting my console and he's still at his place!

longhorn70gmc · 09-24-2007, 10:31 PM

What kind of paint do you use? I like the look.

PT'S 70 CST · 09-24-2007, 11:10 PM

Paint ??? It all depends on the color SEM, Dupli color, Dupont. It really just depends on what someone wants and for the most part if I am not doing one in black I would rather the person pic the color so they know what they are getting because they picked it out.

Thanks PT

wow you did all of those????

PT'S 70 CST · 02-07-2011, 04:32 PM

Sameyrasmea72 every console has that it is a casting ring where these were poured from fiberglass. Some show up worse than others. If you restore it correctly it may not show but I have restored around 75 or so of these and I have seen the best restoration not hide it. 67chevy1series those are all mine.

Thanks PT

**'70_402** · 02-07-2011, 04:55 PM

is that red one the one you did for me years ago??? i was trying to remember what our deal was.. i had one with seatbelt holders and you had that one.. it's been so long ago...

tubbedII · 02-07-2011, 05:25 PM

I'm diggin the little bowtie! Got any more?

Don't know how "proper" my resto was, but it does have the circle.

**jlmerie** · 02-07-2011, 05:51 PM

I have saved these consoles for years. I agree the casting circle shows up a lot and there is not much you can do about it. I must be in the minority about refinishing them. I don't like the finish and shine that is left when they are painted. To me, it does not look like the way they were done from the factory. Whenever I have refinished one, I have used the vinyl dye. It does not leave a shine on them. This is my stash.

Nice consoles, blah, blah, blah....

PT'S 70 CST · 02-07-2011, 07:07 PM

70 402 That was you that bought the red one back in 7/04. Solego the cars rug is long gone and I have no idea where my wife got it.

TubbedII the if you are referring to the bowtie emblem that is something that I tried making and only did a few. It was a pain to try and do them so I just did about two or three. Davestrucks has one of the only consoles that I sold with one on it. Here are a few more pics of some other consoles I restored.
