Thanks BigAls87Z28 and yes I made it myself.
I have had several 70 Camaro's before and the one thing I've always hated was how much the center consoles always creaked and groaned when you lean on them. Plus I was looking for a way to improve my welding skills. So I started out making the frame to be very solid once it was bolted in.
Then I brushed the top sheetmetal and cleared it, made the sides, padded and upolstered them, fit some cup holders and used a Lokar billet trim ring and shifter. This was actually my first attempt at welding or fabricating any kind of sheetmetal.
