Default Wanted: 1969 Center Console

Was going to post this in the classified section, but it seems no-one used it in the last few years,

anywho.

Im looking for a Center Console that will fit a 1969 Mustang - Automatic Trans. It has to have the wood insert like in the Mach 1's.

If no-one has one, thanks anyway

These are available new, you know. The inserts come teak or walnut, the plates auto or manual, with or without the wood insert. The pads are available early or late style.

Trouble is, 42 year old used consoles stripped out of cars usually have the crap beat out of them. The DC console is better than new.

true that, the one i found had a couple of the screws hole tabs broken off, the chrome ring around the shifter was kinda pitted, but it wasnt too bad

cant do anything about that now, because i saw it in August

So, if I was to buy these two pieces, would the end product look very close to the full orig? The thing is, mine is fine but the chrome is peeling in a few areas. Now, it looks diff with the chrome on the insert piece and I am not sure that is on my orig. ANyone know these pieces? If this isn't going to look right, I'm set to spend the $599 on THIS and then try to sell my orig.


Insert

Trim Plate

I guess I answered my questions, I found my pic and it's the top ring not the insert
