A non operating console was never offered in a 69 Firebird and I'm 99% certain it wasn't in 67-68. I suspect that guy just made a new cover for the shift area. That's why it doesn't have any woodgrain, he just peeled it off and painted everything red.
Btw, you could get an 8 track on a non console 69 Firebird. It used a tiny bracket that was less than an inch tall and therefore didn't need a trim bezel to hide the bracket. Here is a pic of it on my base 1bbl OHC6 no console 69 ragtop.
