5th gen console in a 2nd gen....anyone done this?
 

thinking of putting a 5th gen console in my 73, looking for any info and pics if anyone has experience doing this. thanks

I did this. Works and looks great. I love having cup holders lol. I can't seem to post any pics from my phone though. The shop just had to make a simple bracket to mount it on.

I've done a LOT of looking and measuring etc and the best console I've found that retrofits to musclecar applications is from the mid-2000 Impala LTZ/SS. It's not too contemporary-looking and it's built like a traditional console, with no handbrake and no vertical panel to integrate with the dash. Find one in a boneyard and measure it up for your application. One of the best things I've done to the GTO.

Have any pics of this!

Loved to see pics of install with a manual trans.

There you guys go.

Nice

That does look nice. I have an 11 ss and love the console...may have to try one in my 73!

That looks sweet in there, like it's from the factory.
I'd love to see some of the install pictures too.
