I have a dash prepped to do the same. Waiting to order a dash pad at the moment. What grain & grade vinyl did you use? The car looks great! Hope I get there too someday. Very Happy

77mali, I would have to check into that info but he did tell me I wouldn't have needed the dash cap. He said he can fix the cracks and go right over it with a very light padding and vinyl. Jedediah, look at the pics close. I sh#t you not no seams. I was very impressed with his work.

Budman, if you can ask him when you get a chance, that would save me a whole lotta research. I think they use a compressible foam filler that's glued to the top of the dash and then use a lightly padded vinyl too in order to make it look that good. Thanks!

Not yet Budman but have the number you sent me. Have not had a chance to work on the car since early Nov. I will call him though, if nothing else to pick his brain on a thought or two I've been milling around for a while regarding the dash & the back seat arm rest panels. BTW, if I never properly thanked you for the info (apologies) & Thanks!

That is a super job! I have a '74 and went through mostly the same process, but yours is surely the best job I've seen. The colors are great ! Very Happy

Stainless exhaust is sure the way to go. It's more bucks to do, but usually you only have to do once Very Happy
Sure is a great looking car Very Happy
