Foxbody Custom Center Console -- Ford Mustang GT
In the process of this 1988 Ford Mustang GT full restoration project, I'm constantly exposed to opportunities to do new, custom work. Lately, I've been working on the interior and the brake system, predominantly, and I have a unique opportunity to make a fully custom center console.
It's another whole topic, but I'm completely redoing the brake system. I'm adding two proportioning valves, one for the front and one for the rear, Cadillac ATS Brembo front and rear calipers and I'm replacing the existing parking brake system with a hydraulic lock actuator. The latter will allow me to completely delete the parking brake mechanism that takes up a ton of interior space!
I'm fortunate enough to have not one, but two center consoles for my Foxbody. But they are different. One of them is original, OEM, and the other is an aftermarket option that has cup holders. The location of the cup holders in the aftermarket option is not ideal, because it gets in the way of your right arm reaching over to the shifter. It's my intention to move the cup holders over to my new found real estate where the parking lever used to be. Then I can install the parking brake hydraulic lock actuator where the ash tray used to be on the OEM center console.
I hope this creative venture works out or I'm just out two center consoles!

After long deliberation and lots of research, I ordered and received my new engine for the Jalopy project. This jalopy is starting to earn a more respectable name. I decided the car needs a 302. I do, afterall, want to reserve the right to place a "5.0" placard on the car. So, instead of buying a used or junk yard engine, I decided to blow my budget by a wide margin and put a crate motor in the...

    I just received my Gobi ladder. Did you have any visibility issues from your rear camera by following the 8.5 “? I have read online that 8” had to be used and trimming around the rubber door trim. You are the only TH-camr that I can find anything on the Go I ladder for LC200

      I have a slight obstruction from the ladder in the review view camera. Maybe it's because my truck is lifted, but I don't find it overly distracting or blinding by any means. I would say you do have some wiggle room with the ladder placement, but not much and I'm not sure how much that would help.

    Those seals are made to "reshape". I had to make a tool to get mine to compress back down. They are just like sealing rings in a transmission - you stretch them to get them on, then compress them again when they are in place. I have tools for 4L60's, 4R70W's, etc. But I did not have one for my Fox rack, so I made it from some PVC pipe. Unfortunately, I lost an hour of footage when I rebuilt mine because the camera went into heat protection. BUT, I may have some pics, or may even have the tool kicking around if you need pics.
