Centre console

[222s]

Looking for an early centre console - the type that fits around the really long gearstick models and has a clock mounted in it.

Thanks!

Well, clock's was an option - and today it is NOT easy finding a clock that works.. Anyway - Here's what I 've got:

Really nice console - it has been painted somewhere in it's life - probably to try hide the repair done to it on the left side of it (the cracks are easy to see in the pictures) - this repair has also hidden the original square holes for extra switches - you should be able to see this in the picture showing the backside.
The clock is a clock I found on the shelfs - I can NOT say if it works - probably not. It doesn't have the mounting brackets and screws, but it's a tight fit anyway - and the clock sits firmly. (Clock has Volvo logo and dates from 1972)

Overall, it's a very nice centre console for a daily driver Amazon.

Shipping unfortunately looks to be apr. GBP 25 - and if you are OK with paying the PayPal fee's or sending cash - I will be OK with accepting a reasonable bid that reflects at least the work in it for me.

Regards,
Soren

OK - moved to sales section - thanks for your reply.

Thanks for the offer. However I'm really looking for one that's fully intact (the visible cracks aren't an issue) as I also want to use the switch plinths (for front & rear fogs, heated rear screen etc) so that I don't have to hack any holes in my dashboard.

Isn't that just to drill needed/wanted holes? (in the console). :-)

The switch plinths are fully moulded on the upper side. In order for that surface to be smooth like that there's probably quite a bit of filler in there. Wouldn't be an issue for someone who wants to use it as it is, but not exactly ideal for mounting switches in.

Also FYI, I was in the process of replying to you when you sent your last PM....
