ID this console
A real nice piece that was in the trunk of a firebird I bought last year. Have no use for it so I plan to sell.
Not up on the later consoles.........this a 71 or 72 with the woodgrain? A 70? |

it's a 69/70 A body. fits 68-72
Not a 68 because it has the woodgrain insert in the front. Not a 71/72 because it's missing the button hole they added for the console lid release in 71 no one notices whether it's correct for 71 or 72 because most lids are now repops that don't have the button release anymore, and barely anyone would notice it wrong in a 68 because of the woodgrain insert. you'll always see these just advertised as 68-72 Lemans/GTO consoles. |

Its a 69 console.
That's the only one with woodgrain that didn't use pushbutton lid. 70 71 72 all had PB lids 71 used a faux leatherette looking insert 72 was a darker shade woodgrain But like gto4ever said , it can work in any 68-72 if it needs to be used. Same overall shape and size. |

Perhaps an oddity , or perhaps a swapped console.
Good push button lids have been a hot commodity since the mid-80's when I was doing used parts full time. Back when parts catalogs were more sincere , the repop lids were openly stated as correct for 68-69 , but usable replacements for 70-72. |
