Custom console or pre-existing

[leblanc]

Hi all, for this years project I will be removing my old mopar console and installing or building something else. My room is limited as I only have 6" between the seat sides, 7" at the seat backs and I can only go to 23" or 24" long. I plan on having a padded arm rest that would hold a square box of Kleenex, 4 3/8" x 4 3/8" (4 1/2) and of course 2 cup holders. I am looking for ideas or pics, this could be pics of a small car console or even a drawing with details. You can PM me your ideas, many thanks,
Jean-Guy

There are detailed drawings of custom consoles for a-body in previous threads. Search might help find them.

i am working on one ... on and off as time permits.

using the cup holders from a 08 charger. It is still in progress.
I just picked up a console from a chrysler 200 (i think) mainly for the hinge and lid.

i was more interested in what the modern darts have, but the wrecking yard near me didnt have any darts yet.

I know this isn't exactly what your asking for, but I always like showing off my console.

It's a stock A-body console body, with some mods, and a new top plate made from 16ga steel. Aftermarket Hurst shifter, and two stainless cup holders that I ordered from Gander Mountain (boat cup holders).

Good luck on yours.
