That looks pretty familiar Terry, should work out just fine.

The final console is going to be built out of 1/2" marine plywood on the sides. The top is going to be made from a hardwood and stained and cleared. Still have to mockup the upper armrest for the back of it. The stereo will be in the angled area right under the glovebox. And yes, cup holders too.will you use wood or metal as a final product? What are you putting in it, raido, gauges, cup holder?
Jim i`m using the marine plywood because it was left over from a boat job, free gratis. Plus it is lighter than regular plywood, and i want the top outer edge rounded, therefore thicker than the thin stuff and more durable.Why are you going with the heavy lumber and marine grade?
Mike, yes the shifter will be mounted on top. I have it braced pretty good, plus it will be mounted to the dash and the back end of the shifter itself so it should be pretty stable. Plus the insert will be made from 1/2-3/4" hardwood. Had to rethink my armrest/storage space due to the shifter hitting it where i first wanted it.If you are going to mount your shifter on top be sure to allow for the push-pull effect on the top. I had to go back and add addtional bracing.
WHAT, no upholstery:questionmark: I figured an upholstery guy would have some kind of leather real or faux on there:confused0006: Either way I know it will be first class when you finish:tu Later, DaveThe final console is going to be built out of 1/2" marine plywood on the sides.
