Well I have a really cherry 69 console that’s been sitting for some time now. It’s really clean; I have the harness and everything except for the pad (I can get that easy)

My problem is that its worth 3-400 bucks, should I put in into the car, my car wasn't ordered with one, get a hump hugger, or sell it on e-bay.......you vote!

Here’s a pic…..

Man, that thing is nice! I have a humphugger and will be replacing it with a custom console in the future, but you seem more of a stock console kinda guy to me, so I voted to install the thing already!

If you like the look...keep it...if you can live with a humphugger and a little extra cash...then sell it. Your choice really.

I voted hump hugger, but what I really think is that you should make or have made a custom console to your specs. I don't really like the hump huggers I've seen.

The original console is too short and doesn't have cup holders.

69 was the best looking factory stang console in my opinion. you can buy the plug-n-chug drinkholders for them too, they are only about 25 bucks. put it in bro.

If money is a concern sell it and get a deluxe humphugger and pocket whats left over. However if your not strapped for cash buy the cup holders that bnickel suggests. You cant lose either way.

Stick it in your car if you want a console, sell it otherwise.

Which would satisfy you more?, a console in the stang, or $400?
