I am trying to install a console in my 1969 (car was not equiped from factory). I am also trying to add the gauge pod from a 69 shelby in place of the ash tray. Prpblem is I can not get the console foward enough to install the top plate (car has an automatic). Has anyone done this mod or could someone send me a pic of the top of the console with the automatic shifter.:bloated:

If your car did not come from the factory with a console, then there should be an ash tray at the bottom of the center of the console (below the heating controls). The factory ash tray will need to be removed to install the console far enough forward.
