Dash Pad
Hi, Just reaching out if anyone has any suggestions on where to find a dash pad for a 63' coupe? I just finished getting my interior redone and the dash is cracked and I'm having the hardest time locating a replacement. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

There are places that restore dash pads but I know from prior posts that it is expensive to be doing
Hope others who have had it done could drop a line
Enjoy

Just dashes in California does the dash pad restoration. Look to spend close to $1800.00 If you need a dash while yours is getting done, I have dashes with cracks that are good cores to send in or puy on your car, as it takes about 2-3 months to complete.

I ran across some you tubes on restoring dashes, while it didnt look an easy project. it came out good of the guy doing it, it was a tutorial. cant remember where or who put it out there. BUT, for 1800,2000, id at least google it and see if you could find it, it may be within your skill range to do it. just a thought

Now this is a reputable shop and they know me by name here and they will continue to get my business. I am just questioning what on earth is…
