[OK-944]

Wanting to rehab the mildly cracked dash on my '87NA - but not wanting to have my car out of commission for too long while I tackle this project...I am considering the following:

One (most expensive) - look for a core upper dash, then purchase the upper dash cover kit from Classic 9, strip and re-cover the core dash, then switch this dash out with my current, cracked dash as time permits.

Two (most time consuming) - purchase the above mentioned Classic 9 kit, remove my car's upper dashboard and have at it.

Three (least expensive, least time-consuming) - purchase a dash cover from a place like CoverLay, and with this cover the existing (still installed) cracked dash.

While I like the idea of option one the most, as this would allow me to take my time and do a good job while still being able to drive my car until I switch the old dash for the re-covered one, plus the completed dash would look and feel more or less "original," I am very tempted by just going with the Coverlay approach of option 3...quick, relatively inexpensive, and from what I gather a very decent looking product.

My concern about going with the Coverlay approach is that this might actually detract from the value of my car (even when compared to that with my current, cracked dashboard) when it comes time to sell it, plus I might end up disappointed by the "non-original" look and feel of the covered dash.

Comments? Thanks!
