White console

Post by 1bluegtx » Sat May 13, 2006 12:16 am

Has anyone seen or have photos of a b-body with a white console?

Its not numbers matching
It doesn't run on pump gas

I don't think they ever made consoles in white.
White interiors got black dash pad, carpeting and consoles.
They called it white with black interior on the sales brochures.

Could it have been painted?

Why would it have a black glove box lid?
Is that gold paint near the shifter opening?
Has it been painted white with vinyl spray paint?

No its not painted.The door probably was replaced sometime in its life.They did make white consoles here is a scan of the chrysler parts book and it lists the base in some colors including white:

Just take good care of it. The white colored interior parts always seem to "chalk" before the darker colors.

That is cool. I wonder how many came with that. That would be a good one for Govier.

From your parts book scan it appears to only be correct for a 'B' car line (barracuda).

Yeah i have seen them in e-bodies but was wondering if anyone has seen one in a b-body.Also notice that in the parts book it does not list any colors for r or w cars but we know they came in colors.

I've never seen a white one in any car. That's pretty sweet. Would look great with some white seats and black or blue carpet to make it stand out and not blend in so much:D

I have a blue one that looks like it has been painted over with black paint. When it scuffs it scuffs blue.
