Does anyone know who can restore the center console for a 72?
Thanks Lash

I did mine myself. They are painted from the factory. I bought a tan one off ebay. I glass beaded it.[ you have to be very careful, the thing is very soft and you can damage it very easily. The biggest trick is to hold the blast nozzle a lot further away than you would with a metal object] Then I painted black with the same paint I used to paint my truck. I clearcoated it but put very little clear on it. It turned out perfect and if you saw it you would think it had never had anything done to it
