Heres some during and after build.

I don't have too many pics of the interior of my '74, but here's what it looked like last year (the difference being, it's in the middle of a 4-speed conversion now, while keeping the center console)

Um... would that have anything to do with a FB post I saw earlier and am eagerly awaiting the 'after' pics of??
Yes sir. :-D I'm eagerly awaiting the opportunity to show it to the world.
Ok , so now that we know positioning those mounting brackets is the heart of your question we may be able to help.
First you need to know that if the console isn't lined up right the sliding blind in a automatic shifter bezel will not function properly or last very long.
The console is no where near the center of the hump but the hump isn't centered or square to the car either.
Back when I produced console brackets I included a paper templete used to position the brackets properly.
I dony know if anyone here would still have the templete. Couldn't hurt to ask
Hope this helps

okay, just an update (to those interested) as it tunrs out, even though I guessed, I was dead on. the problem was the front bracket arms were bent towards the drivers side. I bent them back, best looking console ever! lol thanks again guys.
