Vance,
You're right it is bolted, the sheet metal screws at the base I thought were mounting screws were actually remnants from a PO installed 4-channel stereophonic sound system. You may remember they were all they rage in the mid '70s. The PO had destroyed the console during the install and cut two additional speaker holes in the door panels. Hope it sounded good it sure made a mess of the interior.
Ah, yes. Quadraphonic. A short lived attempt to increase sales in the consumer audio market.
You can add to that list the Elcassette. An attempt to dethrone the compact cassette tape and increase the fidelity of taped media. Dolby B shot that idea out of the water. Tsk, tsk.
As for cutting up the interior, we all get to deal with "improvements" made by previous owners that we wish they had forgone. <sigh> Such is the price of our fascination with old cars. Don't get me started.
I feel your pain. =;-o
