Now THAT'S a console!
I saw this on atlanta craigslist. It's a 67. Nice truck but for the console.

Re: Now THAT'S a console!
Sheesh...........I applaud their craftsmanship but the execution lacks abit to be desired. That look like a console for an H-1 not a 67 lol.

Re: Now THAT'S a console!
Sure there can, she can hide in the console, hidden trap door on the driver's side...that way the wife won't see her.

A nightstand between the seats wouldn't take up that much space.

Re: Now THAT'S a console!
...that would actually be r4eal funny in a full-on drag car.
mout a toilet seat where the passenger seat would have been, and put a seatbelt for it. then when people ask what its for....just say "i got tired of cleaning up the mess after a ride."

Re: Now THAT'S a console!
There's got to be a reason why someone would build such a monstrosity like that. I built a console into my truck (not complete yet), but I tried to make mine flow with the interior, and be functional at the same time. He's got all that bulk, and no function what so ever. Just doesn't make any sense.
That is a very good looking truck, until you open the door. Maybe it's a theft deterrent? I wonder how many would-be theives have been caught rolling around on the ground laughing after opening the door? Jay
