center console

I have an 85 Bronco, and when I bought it two years ago it was missing the center console. I have checked the local junkyards, and they are all gone. Where can I find one?

Thanks,
Danny

Either check junkyards across the country via the Internet,or check on ebay from time to time. I saw two of them on there a few months ago.Ford no longer sells them, so until the aftermarket parts suppliers wake up,and begin offering O.E.M.-style consoles again, you don't have too many options.

You could go aftermarket and install a Tuffy Security Console. AIM put me on to these, and I finally broke down and ordered one for my '85. I absolutely love it! Cost is around $200 to $225, and they're available from most 4 Wheel Drive shops and vendors.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 22-Dec-02 AT 11:04 PM (EST)]If you can afford a couple hundred bucks tuffy makes excellent aftermarket center consoles that bolt in. They are metal and they have them for broncos. much better then the stock consoles. www.tuffyproducts.com check them out! Your local offroad shop could get them for you to so you can save on shipping. Sorry restorit I guess we posted at the same time:-X12

I live in Greensboro, North Carolina. Looks like you are in California? I don't really care about the color.

You pay the shipping and it is yours. Email me. dblue@attbi.com

I am going to be in away from home till next week, but when i get back i can ship it. Only problems with it are it does not lock anymore and ther eis a small hole on the drivers side at the bottom that wires for a cd changer ran through.

It's easy to replace the lock if it's the same style as '80-86 glove box locks, and I even put an illuminated catch in mine.
