Repro LWB dash

Fellow Pelicans,

We just completed a repro dash and in the process of testing the fit. It looks great and the texture looks as close to original's as possible. Take a look at the pics. After we are done testing it out the dash should be available from our host.

Would love some feedback.

Vik

Is the whole thing new or is this a rework a wrap of an existing dash?

Trying to determine a price. These are brand new just like all our parts. All new internal metal, external shell, and foam core. We made it to look just like an original dash, texture and all.

Grain looks good, very similar to original. Can you post photos of the underside.

Are you also doing a correct speaker insert that has the proper hole pattern and matches the vinyl pattern of the dash you are producing?

Definitely better grain than other repros I've seen. Complete it with a 'square pattern' perf speaker grille and you'll have a winner. You'll likely sell 30% more grilles than dash pads.

Be nice if the gap between dash and door garnish was 1/4" instead of 3/4" like the others, and the grille holes were not wandering. I'm in the market.

Speaker grill is still in prototype phase but thats how it will look with the correct foam backing just like out dash. I jus put up pics of the back of the dash as well. I think it does a great job of mimicking the original's ones from the 70s. Thoughts?

Hopefully the final products will have a better finish on the underside. Great job, keep it coming.
