[SOLVED] Centre Console

[JK240]

Just wondering if anyone can tell me or has a picture of what the standard original centre console in a 1974 260Z would look like.

I may be wrong but the is the one below that is exactly the same as the one I have from the car when new or is this from a later model or a 2+2 ( the ashtray on the back of the console makes me think this...??)

This is not my picture but it's exactly the same as what's in my car.

Thanks.

With an ashtray in the rear it will be from a 2+2

Yep. its a bit of a clue the ashtray.
Also .... I dont think the early 2 seater had a "lid" either
Its hinged to suit Uncle Sams cars too

Thanks chaps, that's what I thought, so what should the standard/original console look like...?

Nope, just a blanking plate in its place.

?????? If it has a blanking plate instead of an ashtray then... It will be ashtrayless.

So lidless and ashtrayless:lol:

To merely state ashtray-less may indicate there are two types, hence the blanking plate reference.

Smart arse
