    According to the instructions...at least the console was avail. in 1970. I think mine was a dealer accessory....NOS in the box. I never hooked the clock up though. I wonder if it works?

    Very cool find ...

    I would bet the clock works as good as they did new ... kinda' ... sorta ... not really ... keep settin' it to the correct time ... :oops:

    Still very cool piece to get NOS and those instructions are a neat bonus.

    Great find! My first 71 Grabber had one with the clock,when I put a 4 speed in it,I turned it around and drilled holes in it and put my Stewart Warner gauges in it! Dah! Heh,it was 1972 what can I say!

    That's pretty cool. I love seeing things that weren't actually meant to be seen by the public.

    Agreed, it's even cooler he found a console, I bought one at a swap meet but not maverick one but for 25 cents I can't complain.
