I want to swap my 81 elcamino to bucket seats any ideas for the center console.?I want to put a floor shifter instead of the column.

Josh , If you haven`t already , do a " Search " for center consoles and I`m sure info will come up from other members tastes or the work they did . On the 87 I recently sold , I installed a console from a manual shift Monte Carlo from around 2006 in between the new Rally 1000 seats I purchased from Summit Racing . . 464 Elky took me on a fun visit to a salvage yard in Palm Beach . Another NECOA member worked there and sold me the console that had the typical storage with a lid and two built in cup/drink holders . It was fairly cheap , easy to install , fit my 5 speed and was at a height that was confortable to rest your right arm on . I am thinking about installing a console in my bucket seated 59 Camino from a 64 Chevy but hesitant as the older models do not have any drink cup holders which I like .

Grand Prix Shifter and console from 2000-2004 work well, as do S10 consoles and shifters. If you prefer aftermarket shifters, then you will need to modify the console to adapt.

I've got a '63 Impala console in my '64 Camino Lenny and I like it cause it's period correct.And I installed a seatbelt bracket,out of a '67 Vette, on the front of the console,to clip the lap belts on to.No drink cups but that's OK cause I never had 'em back in the day.

I custom built this console for my 69. It has cup holders, power ports to charge your phone, a data port, and courtesy lights.

Did you upholster it too? It looks great.

The guy that did my interior did it. Thanks
