I'm looking for a deposit box for my '72 restoration. Does anyone reproduce these? I checked with James's website at Appearance and Performance first but didn't see it there.
Thanks in advance! |

Because they are not a real popular item, there are plenty of both good used and new instantly available from the usual guys who advertise here.
Upstairs in our NOS area, I bet we have at least 50 brand new ones in assorted colors. I'm looking for a deposit box for my '72 restoration. Does anyone reproduce these? I checked with James's website at Appearance and Performance first but didn't see it there. Thanks in advance! |

So that's what that is. I have one that came with my '73. I thought it was a chopped up gage console and was going to give it to Barber Dave. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Thx for saving me from the embarrassment.

Doing a search on "cubby" and found this thread. Last week at the G & R swapmeet I saw two of these. Bought the cheaper of the two to see how it would work and really like it. The drivers side curves toward the center so your foot has plenty of room. The one I bought is pretty rough and the wrong color.
Would like to find one in tan/camel. |

I discarded my center console several years ago. I really like this cubby, the driver side is angled inward and provides plenty of room to move the right foot from the accelerator to the brake and back without hanging up. Plus it doesn't take much room. The cubby I picked up at the G & R was well worn, but I want to get a nice one to match the tan interior..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
And, they are easily removable. This make getting to the wiring easier than the center console |
