Nothing earth shattering here, just got the outer panels out and lined them up for some pictures. All these have to be painted grey and some are gonna get squirted black. Time to get the scrub brush out and get these panels clean and ready for paint. All the pieces front to back...
All the pieces back to front...
The inside of the passenger side panel. The map pocket is attached by melting the tabs coming through the main panel...
The back panel with the cup holder assemby. The cup holder assembly will stay black, the rest gets squirted. This console had the rear audio controls as well as rear HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) controls. The insert for the audio controls and HVAC can have the innards removed leaving just the outer piece that screws into the backside of the panel. A thin piece of plastic or aluminum can be glued to the existing piece to fill the holes nicely. The audio control insert has already had the electronics removed and only the faceplate remains.
The front top piece. These vary depending on the model of Expy the console came out of. This one was apparantly a top of the line model as it has the HVAC controls and a "button" between the cupholders as well.
The main storage compartment. This one has a wide slot cut in the middle of it as does the skeleton. Suppose something went there like perhaps a CD changer. Side and top views.
The back panel again with the cupholder cover...
The cupholders that attach to the back side of the cover...
Underside of the main storage compartment lid...
The lid. You can see why most want to recover the lid. It's just not very good looking with those two seams...
Underside of the top front panel...
Oh, and Dale, I didn't get to "dessert" tonight. Like most all the time for me my planned jobs for the night take longer than anticipated. I did get this collection of junk up though....
Don't have all the Chevron Car stuff but pretty sure I've got all the cars, and a couple of packages of the cookies, and the CD and the cardboard garage carrier....
