Looks great! I did the same in my car. I welded the threaded piece to the bottom of the tunnel. Shifter comes out no problem. No console, just wrapped the tunnel in hushmat, then vinyl stitched to match my seats, with a universal shift boot glued to the shifter trim ring.

The tunnel looks good, and like Scott said good idea and nice job on the trim ring for the shift boot.

In these circumstances - custom is the only option...:thankyou:

Done yet ?
 

I honestly thought this car would be done by now !

:lmao:

Nice job Steve ...
Steve

:relax: These things take time...:lol:
Cheers Steve! Got to come out and see ya sometime...

+1 on the shift ring, I am stealing that idea !

Been a while...
 

But some good progress still. Some fun restoring the dash carrier, thanks to AAW and Dakota Digital. Getting very close to turning the key and going for the first cruise in 6 years. Summer '18 looking very promising :thumbsup:

Any progress is progress in the right direction, dash is looking great Joe!

Thanks bud! Really hoping to have it running and on the road for this coming spring/summer :cheers:

Been a while...
 

...but moving along! So after many hopeful spring/summers, the car WILL be on the road this (2019) season. Been following along from time to time, always great motivation. Big thanks to my longtime friend Steve (aany001) for assisting me every step of the way.
