Overhead Console Rare???

I have a 1987 z28. According to my Sales Brochure there was 3 packages. Fza1, 2 and 3. 3 being the highest option package. My z28 is the Fza3 package with the overhead console. I wanted to know if it is rare for a 87' z28 to have the overhead console. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

No, lots of 87's had them. Not sure how many because of the option combos that year. Check out ******* stickey on 87's at the top of the history board.

I would say that overhead consoles are not rare. At all. Its just a nice factoid to include when selling one on ebay.

Now for one to be complete without any missing pieces, that is rare... Same goes for the elastic on the pouch... if its not stretched out its pretty unusual.

Ya, I don't have the overhead console in my 87 Iroc-z. It seems like I've seen more of them that do have it than don't.

Finding one with a flashlight in it is hard. I sold one not to long ago for $50 (just the flashlight) then sold the console for $20
