Console Recommendation

I am getting to the interior phase of my restoration. Four years ago when I bought the car I ordered seat upholstery/foam, carpet, door panels, dash pad. I decided I could restore the console. Well I was wrong. The shifter console is broken in more places than it isn't. The emergency brake console is about as bad.

I was looking on the Wilcox web site and they have two shifter consoles listed. One I assume comes from Corvette America but they also have one from Al Knoch listed. I was wondering if one is better than the other and would appreciate any recommendations you might have.

Thanks
Mark Potter

I could be wrong, but I suspect that they are both made by the same 'manufacturer', but sold by both of the vendors you listed.

Contact Ernie at Willcox or the Al Knoch site. It is my understanding Al Knoch makes all of his own products in house.

Hi,
I believe that both the Corvette America and Al Knock sites indicate that they manufacture shifter consoles.
