I'm pretty torn on this one, too. It is just SO clean and original in appearance, which is a big part of its appeal. If I came across an original 2wd frame (like the TWO that sold here while I was away!), I would consider a tub swap, but I'm hesitant to do a 'hack job' on it. On the other hand, if PB would produce a complete conversion kit, like they do for 73-87, weeeeeeeelllll, I might have to change my mind...

I purchased a nice, original cupholder style; should arrive next week, I hope. I will be performing the console resto myself, including tear-down, cleaning, color change to parchment, and reassembly with stainless hardware (and maybe a stereo inside). I will document the process here.

Buddy..... You're like me/others around here that are rather anal. Nothing you do would be a hack job. But, when you have multiple trucks, they don't all have to be planted (so I'm told ).
