" one way,or the other,you Are coming with me "

went to the yard this weekend,and at the end of the day,
after getting everyone elses stuff,decided to give this console a shot.

i ended up using a small road sign as a hatchet to remove the " console ",
after trying to take the console apart in the car/fail.
this took about an hour of sweating and cursing whilst crouched inside whats left of a smashed up charger/which is about 3 feet high total,
while my friend held up various bits and pieces of charger out of my swing radius.
as you can see,Determination wins again.

also wondering if anyones seen this accel dual point setup before and what vintage it is??
deffo a sb distributor.

I still have the Accell distributor I bought for a 69 Barracuda I had in 1977. I used the same Mallory coil also, really like both of them.

That was a creative tool you used for sure.

hatchet and a hammer are great for cutting panels under less than ideal conditions.

It's cool what you can get apart once you have identified the stuff that doesn't matter.

I once cut apart an old chevy with an axe... felt good too. These days, the cheap wannabe sawzall does the job.

Looks like the console came out of a E-body

this was a 72 charger se that had been totaled no front clip motor trans anything.
then it sat and rotted Into the ground so it was like a lil dwarf charger,
really " fun " to work inside/not!

ive got it cleaned up and working fine,just needs a handle now.
i sold one last weekend and it was exactly the same,color and all,
to a friend and that came out of an ebody.
the overlay plate wasnt bent like This one is,but i mightttt be able to save it.
and it turns out i got all the brackets off the tunnel tool,so thats a plus.
wish me luck n thanks for all the replies as well.
