Somebody will either have one or the drawnings so you could fabricate your own.

Shrom has a ... "CVX-18 Custom center Console. Possibly fit others"

I'm not sure what this one is out of CVX-18 or 16 ...
It's not for sale ... it's just the picture and measurements of one ....

This is what the console out of a CVX16 looks like. Don't own the boat anymore so I can't give you dimensions, but I think David is getting those for you anyways. Mine was nice for keeping keys, wallet and cell phone in.

Post by: sledneck67 on July 20, 2012, 02:56:56 PM: thats nice looking.Thanks for pic.Do you know if they all had the console or was it a option? Dosent look like my boat ever had one.

Post by: CVX Fever on July 22, 2012, 10:29:15 PM: I think the consoles started showing up as standard equipment when the boat was re-introduced in '83, which is what year mine was. I don't think it was ever available even as an option for your boat. My '79 CVX18 also doesn't have a console but most of them built in the '80s do. The CVX16 was dropped in the early eighties for a year or two when Glastron Carlson released the metric series and then was brought back.
