Location: Lödöse | Hi! Is there anyone who has built a console for storage and cupholder etc in a FL car. Equipped with bench seat. Would be nice with cupholder etc on trips. Any ideas, photos etc would be appreciated. |

Location: Ponder, TX | Never built one for a FL bench seat, but did make one for Dakota split bench. I've built consoles for other Mopars, both cars and trucks.
My modified '56 Plymouth with Sebring buckets will have one that is still under construction. If you are interested in any of them to get ideas, just PM me and I can send a few photos. I don't want to post them on the forum since my cars are all modified in other ways. |

| yeah I was thinking what would one have looked like in the 50's? it wouldn't be the 1980's couch style like these.
maybe made of wood? or with chrome, maybe all chrome? like the tissue holder style...
I want to make one that looks period correct. I would think JC Whitney probably had a beer console |
