Difference in these consoles ? Help

[Rat Rod Al]

I have 2 E / B body consoles. the cutouts are different next to the drivers knee. Is one for an Auto and one for a 4 speed ?

Appears to be but I am sure someone will chime in with a more definitive answer. The vast majority of the consoles I have seen or have are AT variants so I am not 100% positive. I do know what I have altered AT versions for 4 speed cars and that looks familiar.

Unfortunately my pics are up side down from each other.

i went out and pulled out a 73 b body Automatic slapshifter console
it looks a lot like your top picture there.
pic for reference.
also pics of part numbers off the bottom of the chrome plate.
flip yours over and look at it in very good light to see when it was made.
plastic underside stamped B 73 and F310 are to the right side of the shifter hole.
hope this helps

Thanks , I checked the numbers on both, they came up with the same results.

Bottom is a 4 speed console.. Top one could be with a few minutes worth of trimming..
