L-Bracket Ace Hardware.. They have many applicable brackets to that peice, even with hole for the placement screw to floor,, Ace is the Place.. Also AA uses new brackets not OEM on their repro console but I do not know where they get them, nothing special ther.. Good Luck Dave..

To be more clear, I have the L brackets , I need the vinyl covered piece of

wood at the end of the console. Dave

Dave, I don't have an extra of that piece, but I'll bet you could get some same thickness plywood scrap at the local Home Depot, Lowes, Maynards , etc. - & cut it to size, then cut to fit & staple/glue some scrap black vinyl material from a trashed console or some pulled off a recovered one to make one up!

George, any chance your AA guy you recovers the consoles there could contribute the scrap vinyl taken off the old restored consoles to Dave for is charity console reconditioning projects?

Sorry, Home Depot for wood.. And I have black porsche/mercedes leather/ porsche leatherette/ and italian leather.. just tell me the size you want? It won't match smooth vinyl though.. Just remebered I can cut a piece for you out of my upper dash, thats vinyl damn near new vinyl but I am replacing it w/ leather so do not need.. pm me if you want or waht you want, I even have the wood just tell me the size and depth you want and are using.. if you can wait a day I can glue or staple? which are you doing glue or staple? , oh big concourse fault it won't have a stich in it but I could just get everything to you and you can sew stiches in it?? pm me , I am come and go, projects making me forgetfull ..

Detoxcowboy:

6 1/2 x1/2 x 1 1/2 will do. I have vinyl. Thanks Dave

oops, I was picturing the little wood piece at the FRONT of the console - that I have. The back piece I don't have. Actually I did exactly what Tom T. suggested for the piece you're looking for and it turned out fine. It's a 15 minute job, 30 with beer.
I completely recovered mine and scrapped the original vinyl, otherwise I'd send it to you.
