Take a look at this...
Here is a pic of my old dash. Is this thing repairable
or reupholsterable? (I made that word up ;-) Or is it doomed. Thanks for the input. RedSierra |

I would say its too far gone. You can get a cover from lmc and glue over the top of that dash paint it up.

Re: Take a look at this...
It all depends on how much work you want to put into it. It might just be easier to track one down in better condition. But its always more fun to get creative and try fixing it, dont have to worry about damaging anything nice.

Re: Take a look at this...
Took only a day. I like it better than any aftermarket crap. And way cheaper too.
