Kind of looking for a burgandy center center console for my regal. I'm not dying for one or anything, but I just want to see how readily available they are, and what they are going for. Would prefer an olds or buick console. If I find one at a decent price, I might buy it, but nothing urgent. If I don't get one now, it will definately happen sometime in the future.
 
Try Craigslist for gbodys being parted out or junkyards. On eBay you're gonna pay over $200 for junk. A real nice console is hard to find, but u can always work 'em & re dye it.

I found 1 on CL I'm interested in. It's an olds console, with woodgrain in fair shape. What should I expect to pay for it?

If he knows what he has you will pay 250+ If he has no idea offer him $50. I got mine for $25 😀

X2. You gotta find someone who is getting ready to crush one or doesn't know what they got. I've picked up decent consoles in package deals and or gave as little as 15 for one. Here in my neck of the woods, its damn near impossible to find a near mint console. I generally I have to make one nice one from 2. The good thing is they're the same 78-88, so u got a lot of model years to look thru. In all of my parts hunting, I've never found a regal console tho.

The guy knows what he has for sure. No way in hell I'm paying $250 for a console. If I could get one for $125 or less, I'd be happy. I'm not looking for mint, just driver quality. Complete, no large chips or cracks, not dry rotted or too faded.
 
If u can't find one locally, I have a fair one that id let go for $100 plus the shipping. It would need a lil bit if work & sprayed your color.

I'm mildly interested in it. Can you PM me a couple pics?
 
I can't ever get my pics uploaded through pm. I'll post it below.
