Find someone who will give you an old console to use as a pattern and go from there. I bought some leather off of evil bay and recovered all of my interior pieces. It all looks like new, no one else has one like mine and only cost 150 bucks for three full hides of leather.

FWIW, I'm surprised no one has done a massive stained oak replacement console, like the ones in all those '80's "show trucks" and "conversion vans".

**** the whole interior and don't forget the outside too.
I wanna see some chrome wheels with the fake wire wheel overlay as well!
I'm a child of the 70's so I say go all the way baby! Far-out and right on!

FWIW, I'd make some kind of trim ring to go around the parking brake lever. The cut edge of carpet looks silly, and hiding that would make this look pretty darn good.
