    Hi gang i found a cool center consol. i was walking down my street and seen the back of a weard car,i had no clue what it was but it looked like it had mav tail lights. so i walked up to it and it was a 76 c**vy monza! i looked inside and i seen the black center consol.i talked to the guy and i got it for 20 bucks! i havent had the chance to modify it or fit it yet but it looks like somthin ford would make.im going to deleat the e break with wood grain and add a mustang shifter. so what do ya think fer 20 bucks

    Heck, I'd grab the seats too if they look worth the trouble.

    I'd have given 20 bux for it in a heartbeat.
    But I am bias, my Dad has a 78 Monza Spyder he bought new when I was 8.
    The most mangled part on his car is the black center console.

    Good score.
    Why not get a brake lever and run your e-brake cables to it?
    They are really simple setups.
    Unlike the rest of the car!
    The V8 versions are a MAJOR headache to work on!

    that ebreak handle idea is a good one. probably really east you use a mustang 2 setup, i seen this done in a granada once, was really nice

    hhhmmm i thougt about deleating it and hacking it up to fit a gt floor shifter but for all the colem shift guys this consol would be ausome. just put another sheet of vinal over the stock shifter hole.

    If you've been in a Monza, you'd figure that the shifter wouldn't line up, and the e-brake in a Mav is totally different, not worth the trouble, may as well make one from scratch. Hope I spelled everything correct, I'm pretty drunk.
