Original owner cars are so cool. This one was bought off the lot late in the year, so it's options weren't "personally" ordered. The original owner didn't mind the bucket seats and console shifted 4 speed, but how do you appease a girlfriend who likes to ride close?

You just hacked the storage bin portion of the console off with a hacksaw, cover the remaining hump in some funky fabric, and make yourself a little upholstered crushed velvet pillow, allowing a passenger to ride right in the center next to the driver.
I'm too young to remember the days when you could get away with this kind of stuff...but I'm sure some of you aren't.
My buddy told me he found 2 unopened 1976 dated Trojans under the rug when he was cleaning it out too, so I guess we can safely call it a "jump seat" now.
