Wow that sucks big time. And all just for some change. Make the Cops have them work it off for ya. Than they would understand just what a little change is really worth and less likely to do it again.

That is a Torino body right? Some models of them had a console. Also maybe a stang or falcon sprint.

fairlane /torino I think are the same..haven't had any luck in the wreckers..yet..the kids are under age..so the cop's won't do anything. lost key's from 4 cars and 2 trucks ..and because I don't have numbers for the dirt bike that disappeared ..honda TC 110..I'm S.O.L,,, not a great christmas.. It's a red interior with buckets ..just thought I would try here and vent a bit ..they didn't bust any glass ,or wreck the 6-pack..I'll get over it..

In my day after my Pop basted my *** he would have made me work it off. And I am now raising my grand boys ages 9 and 11. You can bet when they first pull a stunt like that I will nip it in the butt. If the cancer don't get me first. Now to run these ya hoos to bed as they got school tomorrow. Good luck Ken

PS: I would just bet if it was a cops car or a Judge or like that they would do something underage or not. Don't they realize if they don't put a scare into them now than the next time it will be worse.

Dearborn Classic has the center console, body only, for $499 and the lid separate for $69.95. Says you have to transfer your shifter bezel and upper tray. Comes in white so has to be dyed to color you want. Dealt with them before with no problem.

You in BC? call the RCMP and have them kick the kids senseless.
A guy up my way has a 69 for scrap, I'll call tonight and if it has a console I'll get his number to you.
