Default 67 Shift Console Repair

As the fun continues I found my shift console is cracked at one screw head and somewhere along the line someone tried to make the repair. I’m not sure if the inner edge is separate from the flat green part, but by the crack they are now two pieces. Not sure if this can be repaired and I have seen where Andy Cannizzo repairs 63’s but wasn’t sure if he could fix this or if he is still in business.

Here is a better picture of the crack. From what I have searched I guess the 63 is the only year with a replacement horseshoe and 64-67 are all one piece. Does that sound correct?

They are the same except power windows are different, there are plenty available used, just clean up and repaint

The '63 console was multi-piece, and the '64-'67console was a single die-cast piece.

Thanks guys. I called Andy and he said how mine was cast vs the 63. Guess I will keep my eye out for one.
