Source for '69 911S dash?

Anyone know of where to find a new or perfect original top dash pad for my '69 911S ?

$1300 for a new one is choking me! Any accurate reproductions out there?????

There is a company in Germany making repros but I am sorry I can not remember the name. I am sure I also saw them advertising/selling on ebay.de

Be sure to read this thread from the Early S site about Just Dashes. I have no history with them what so ever but I have used Tony at Autobahn but not for a dash repair.

I dont have an old one to restore. When I was building this car with track in mind, the old dash was ripped off and tossed as it was cracked very badly. I have a very lightweight dash cover glued in place. Looks great at a glance... but tap on it and the joke is apparent.

Any ideas on name for the German company making repros?

I'd think about finding a "core" with some cracks and having Tony at Autobahn recover it. See the referenced S Registry thread above for photos and contact info. The new dashes available from Porsche have recently been notorious for not fitting. Through persistence I was able to find a suitable used dash with just one small crack (Ebay), but I was lucky and it took a long time.
