Fesler Built Nova Dash Insert Poll
OK I have had several people ask me about the Nova Dash so I am going to do a poll to see how many would be intersted in it. If I get enough we will have them built, if I only get a few we may consider hand building a few of them for you guys. We think if we get enough orders we can have them produced if we have to hand build them they will run around $800-1200 depending on options and shape done. We can also sell it in stages as just the blank or all the way to ready for gauges with gauges.
Its all on you let me know

Dude, that's some serious coin. But you guys do top notch work...
I like the fact that it's steel. It would be awesome if you had a single DIN cutout for a stereo deck. Finish options? Powder coat?
Most Nova guys are cheap @sses, so... price accordingly. LOL!
The few, the proud, the crazy... the LT1 owners.

Chris,
69LT1Nova does have valid point! I really do like your design (clean and simple), but I can buy a Covan dash complete with six Autometer gauges for about $850.00Project 69 Camaro: Chassisworks G-Bar, FAB-9 & sub-frame, Fesler Billet, ISIS wiring & LS3!

If I was maybe 10 years older and not in the process of getting married, I might swing it. That is too much cheese for me.

looks like a very nice piece, It would be a while before I will be at that stage of my project so it wouldn't be an immiediate thing for me. Is that pricing with gauges? if so I think it would sell no problem due to it being a better quality alternative to the covans dash.
72 Nova SS, on the back burner for now.

Love the design and look, but couldn't fork up that kind of coin either. A sub $500 price tag would make it alot more tempting.....

How about offering a kit with all of the pieces ready to weld together less gauges? Ask a reasonable price to cover your time and materials and I think they'll sell. Maybe offer a jig and credit a % of the cost of the jig back once it is returned. You could offer a gauge and wiring kit with an installation template for the guys that want the whole deal but need to do it a little at a time. Nice work though!

Yep... then all of the labor is on the buyer... I would think that all of the pieces cut from a jig could be done for $150 or so. Close to 1k for a dash is overly expensive IMHO Originally Posted by ebncrdr

Once the process is down and the templates are made it shouldn't take more than 4 hours or labor. Originally Posted by Memphis

They are slightly different. The dash pad is different to allow for the camaro to have a clock (the center piece is different) Originally Posted by datsbad

For that money I'll definitely be waiting on Anvil to come out with their carbon fiber piece that will be in the neighborhood of $300
