Chevelle Center Consoles

MESA, Ariz. -- If the center console in your Chevelle or El Camino has seen better days, now it's easy to replace it with a high-quality reproduction from Impala Bob's. Consoles are $299.99 for '68-'72 Chevelle and El Camino models with a four-speed and $329.99 with either a Turbo-Hydra-Matic or Powerglide automatic. Customers can order online or call 1-800-IMPALAS (1-800-467-2527).

"The interior plastics on these cars tend to get very brittle with age, especially if they've had a lot of exposure to sunlight and heat," said Impala Bob's President Bob Antebi. "Our reproduction consoles are a must for any interior restoration, with an exact match to the original design."

Impala Bob's console kits come complete with the center console base, chrome surround trim, console door and hinge, back light assembly, chromed and finished top plate, console lock catch and screw kits. Consoles for 4-speed models also include the shift plate emblem; automatic models also include the indicator lens for Turbo-Hydra-Matic or Powerglide, complete automatic plate dial assembly and console sealing strips.
