I drove to the yard and got a beautiful pass fender off a 88 Supreme Classic. Thinking about getting the front clip and putting it up for sale but the rain stopped all that. Off tomorrow so I might go back and get it.

Got my GP console "restored". I painted it black, polished the chrome trim and put new black carpet on it. Now I just have to find a top piece so I can put it in the car and make it fit around my new shifters.

Lookin' good, man.
You mentioned "shifters" plural. Did you install Lightning Rods in there?

I'm guessing that the GP console requires a taller shifter compared to one from a Monte...or use a pedestal to raise up the shifter base.

They are more Lenco inspired shifters. They are made by Kilduff. I had the rods cut 3" shorter because they were too tall and gaudy like most Kilduff shifters :lol: 4 levers in total, P-R-N-3-2-1, 1-2, 2-3, and 3-N. Once I get a console top piece I can install it and be done! This shifter is made like a tank so I dont have to worry about breaking them like the Lightning Rods are kinda famous for.

It looks awesome. Very business-like. I like it. :)
It didn't even dawn on me that you had Lenco style shifters in there.

Good luck finding a GP console top plate.
