    These consoles were common in the Riv's , '70-'73. Might try the boneyards that have the older Rivs listed/shown. I can't help you in pointing to anyone in particular.

    Well I do not have a complete console, but here is a link to a pushbutton console lid I restored on Ebay starting out at $35 with no reserve. In case you don't find a complete one this top would be a great start.

    Is that your push button console currently on Ebay?I thought about trying to buy it as a replacement for my 65 top which of course has the Emblem instead of the button.My top is not real good but the base and chrome is nice.That one on Ebays looks nice,have it on my watch list and will see where it goes.

    Yes it is mine. It is a really nice top. I restored it a few months back. Its all there and they are hard to find in good condition and up for sale. You would be throughly happy with it.

    GStage1 Always looking for parts!

    This is the one he wants or the push-button style. I believe the lids are still available for $80-90 from Cars.

    Have to be patient. I have seen them on Ebay and posted there here on the Ebay section.

    I bought a repro top from CARS. They are not bad, could be better but anything is better than nothing. I think I paid around $110 shipped for the repro top, pushbutton style.
