Hey all,

I'm just starting to look at center consoles for my 73 914, and have no idea at what price is fair.

I know that good original (intact) consoles are getting more and more hard to come by, so what kind of price should I be looking at.

There is one out of a 73 on e-bay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2410555110&category=33695) starting off at $95 and with a BuyItNow price of $160.. Is that a good/fair/average/piss-take price?

I really have no idea! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Thanks in advance for the help!

Dougie

My console was sitting in a rust bucket outside for many years. It has some kind of super dirt or mold (no smell) on it that will not come off. If you want to buy the one on ebay ask the seller to clean it and guarantee (pic's) that it is in good condition.

The vinyl is a molded factory type with fake stitching, kind of cheap looking crap IMHO.

I'm getting my mommy to look at it tonight. She has done upholstery for me before and does a good pro-looking job. I'll let you know what she says.
