converting the console into a cooler

[Jeff Ogden]

I have not really looked at it much but was wondering if anyone has successfully converted it to a cooler,if it bolts to a bracket on the floor I was thining about adding a drain but if it bolts diectky to the floor then some engineering will have to be done.

The console mounts directly to the floor, no bracket. I know Adam found a post on another web site about it. Heres the link to what he came up with

Good Luck

I finally got around to looking at it yesterday and noticed it was bolted directly to the floor so I am going to come up with a way to make brackets so I can seal up the bolts to remove it easily if needed,probably use a gutted truck valve stem as a drain since thet are designed to bolt on. The late model GM trucks have brackets for the console that go under the seat bolts to attach it so I am going to find a set of them to see if I can make them work.
