I have just purchased a 1966 Coronet, the interior is shot! I had no clue that seats were so expensive, can't seem to locate the automatic council shifter knob, or a floor shift column collar. Rather way it's going to be a fun summer! Thanks again for having me...

Welcome Baydo
The auto console shifters are out there. Here is a new repro:

I have seen originals in driver quality go for much less.

There, I've posted a pic for you, it's good form to reciprocate!

I think these seats are out of a Monico? I have no clue, Im trying to get some seats that work on a budget.

I would love to match the back seats, but I cant find these anywhere.

 

[Coyoteduster]

Nice! Interiors are much easier to replace than rust my friend and she looks pretty much rust free. You should have her out on Gratiot Avenue in no time. ;)

The car has a column shift and a floor shift, I could go either way, depends on seats I found, is it possible to get a floor shift column collar for a 66? also the steering wheel that is on it is from a barracuda....hmmm

I hope so, on a side note I'm a cartoonist, I did a few comics for a paper, maybe you guys will get a kick out of them
