Keep it as a coffin for a pet when one passes. Money was not wasted then.
LoL hey man that doesn't look so bad, I bet it's made better than its Chinese counterpart
I made one for my 72 Duster. I used that hard board. I think they call it Mica? Brown and has one smooth side. I only used two pieces. Top piece to go around my B_M shifter and the side piece next to the passenger's legs. I used wood corner molding/liquid nails and Brad nailed. It is held in place by one screw on top using one of the B-M shifter screws. Because the console runs up against the seat I didn't have to cover that end. The other end you can't see unless you get under the dash and the drivers side only shows the B-M shifter console side. I got a piece of scrap of Vinyl and foam from an upholstery shop for nothing. (scrap). Vinyl was stapled on and foam was glued on. Don't give up.... you can do it!Just wasted a week and $ 50.00 worth of material trying to make a custom center console for my 64 Dart. Advise...1/4 inch plywood and liquid nails just doesn't cut it. No matter what you do it gets out of square and wobbley.Kept trying to brace it after I covered it with vinyl. It will function for now so I can move on but eventually must be redone. Cheap ends up costing more in the long run.Well that's off my chest...Feel better now.
if it looks as good in real life , as it does in the pics, I`d figure out how to X brace it underneath !
no poop - that's got a good look - like everyone else is saying, that looks very salvageable - I would reinforce the corners and edges with 1/2" x 1/2" pieces glued in - let 'em dry good then do what Greg was saying with the foam - WOOD BLOCK method pictured below
That's similar to what I did and it worked well..Now installed in car.
