just know that there is something different about the makeup of the original 1970 consoles.
What ever is the case, I could not get any repairs to adhere to the 1970 plastic/ABS or what ever it is.
My original did not have the outer vinyl significantly ripped, and had barely any burns on it but the structure between the front tray and arm rest were busted up pretty bad.
I tried repairing it many times over, and eventually gave up after I found a mint black console in a 1976 455 TA somewhere around '00.
Every fix looked great, and would hold up for a short time, then literally pop off.
I recently had my memory/suspicion confirmed - the 1970 consoles have grey backing/plastic, while the newer ones have black.
