    I was on Maverick Man's website looking at the Grabber hood for my '76 when I observed the Brazilian GT video; I noticed the console inside and I'm curious as to what car this came from? Anyone know?

    Thanks! Next question; how much modification for fitment does it entail?

    The mav is gone but i'm still here!
    Just buy one and figure it out! That's half the fun of hot rodding.

    Just found one from a 1973 Mustang and a clock. Need to research further...

    I put a gauge trio in front of it. It drops off sharply as the Mustangs and Cougars had a drop down from the center of the dash that merged with it better. I like it because it doesn't look too modern.....correct grain and overall style. The only thing is the front. I couldn't find a better pic than this. BTW, console storage area is great, I have a tuner mounted in there with the stock AM in the dash. Foam/rubber console lids are repopped.

    That really looks sharp! There's one on eBay for nearly $600.00, but I found another for $100.00 with a large crack that needs glue.

    Maybe I should sell mine. I paid about $40 around 2002 in mint shape.
