71 BRAKE CONSOLE
« on: April 20, 2005, 10:57:06 AM »
Just enquiring on behalf of a possible new member (71 RED coupe)with no computer skills (yet!) if anyone knows or has an original 71 - I know that they came with stitched dash, But did they come with a stitched park brake console ?????. He is looking for an original console and tells me that it came stitched?????
Does anyone know if this is correct????
I thought they were the same 69 - 72! Just plastic (dimple pattern)
 And does anyone have one for sale?
His name is JOE and he says he will be at  all GM day at Penrith (later about 1pm or so) to have a look and meet some members. I talk to him, sounds like a nice guy!
His vette was originally a Yellow Big Block, but now it has a 350 (but kept his BB) and is FAST red!
I think I'll have to Knock some sense back into him to put the RAT back in!!!! ;41

69Dr I might be wrong but wouldn't steve the Uphlosterer be the man to talk to, I would probably put him on to him as he is a world of knowledge when it comes to our cars.

If anyone needs to know,apparentlly I was right they did NOT come out standard with a stitched looking Brake console in 71!.But it was fairly common to get them redone/upholstered with this stitching!
