For Sale '68 center Console

Saw this on CL, but more interested to know if it is someone on our site, since they have GT/CS dash and steering emblems!

I just spoke to the seller. Nice guy. He has 2 California Specials, one is blue and the other is Highland Green.

He also has a '67 convertible that needs a console, so if you know where there is a '67 console for sale please let me know and I'll contact him.

Here is the blue car. The CS portion starts at 2:00

Yes, I met him a few years ago at the Bellevue Mustang show. I believe he bought the car that was advertised from somewhere near Longview, Wa.

IMHO, $650 is too much. A good lower console should be $400 tops.
They're all the same whether it comes from SCJ, Deluxe interior or a 6 banger.
The bugaboo for consoles is finding a decent pad for the radio/storage area.
Just my 2 cents worth.

They are however different from AC cars and Convertibles.

franklinair · 02/20/2018, 08:13 AM

Yes they are. But easily trimmed for either application.

You just can not go the other way
