The console is from a Volkswagen Golf I (Not sure what year).
The rest is home build

That turned out nice Edmond, what are you going to do where the opening is? Cup holder, storage, or ?

Yeah I'm happy with it.

I think storage. That seems to be the most logical solution.

beagler · 02-05-2005, 07:37 PM

thats nice. what are you going to do about the heater vent thats there for your feet though? just curious?

Martin64 · 02-05-2005, 11:50 PM

Where are the pictures? I don't even see a red "X"....

TRUCKGUY · 02-06-2005, 12:07 AM

do you have the color code for the paint? will it work on the out side also?

71Chevy4-speed · 02-06-2005, 01:17 AM

Very nice, LOVE the color of your truck too.

**tnblazerk5** · 02-06-2005, 01:35 AM

wheres the cat ?

Brainchild · 02-06-2005, 04:17 AM

I like it,looks like it was a factory piece almost.

Edmond · 02-06-2005, 04:35 AM

The color is Indigo Blue Metallic, the code is: 39 / WA9792

Here are some outer pictures:

I never use this heater vent on the floor, so it's kinda blocked now.

For some strange reason the cat didn't want to be a shifter-head anymore

Edmond

Blue Beard · 02-06-2005, 09:15 AM

Very nice job....isn't the hole for a cup holder?

Longhorn Man · 02-06-2005, 10:36 AM

That looks pretty awsome.
Somehow I must have missed it when you got your rig painted...that looks great man. And I see you swapped out the grill too....lookin good man, lookin good.

nu2-72 · 02-06-2005, 10:45 AM

I can see it now Edmond. Flip up lid and the NOS switch.

Thanks!!
I did posted many updates during the painting proces. To bad you missed it.

Yes the grill is now the right one. The old '70 style grill was completely hacked up by the previous owner. Now it looks like it supposed to be looking.

Edmond
