Where is the best place to get a dash pad for a 67 F'body. I got rid of my stock one years ago thinking it could not be restored. Now I need a new dash pad. Does Just Dashes sell pads or just restore them ???

Talked to Just Dashes. They only restore dashes for a 67. So I need to find a good quality repro of a salvagable original one.

Some of the repros for 67's aren't that bad and might just be as good or better than a reconditioned one.
You might be able to find an original that needs nothing but it will be expensive, how expensive can vary a lot.
Anyone ever cover one in leather?

I have seen leather,velvet,nawgahide,velour,duct tape,packaging tape, blue jeans, etc.
These cars have been around long enough to have seen it all. That means I have been around for just as long,lol.

I've heard the more expensive ones are pretty good. Metal backing so it doesn't warp in the heat. And much nicer than the cheaper urethane versions. I'm keeping my options open for now.
