dash pad

[1of1]

Yes, dash is something you see and look at all the time.  Getting it right is worth the effort / expense.

Yes it is , Here is a just dash on stock metal frame Vacuum formed...They use newer glue and materials, it is a work of art and worth every bit of $900.00

Do you have pics of the ABS-frame pad for comparison?

No Sorry....it was so bad it went right back to Year One the same day....The dead give away was that is sagged when i took it out of the box and the wrap was wrinkled around all areas where it made a change in direction...Good thing Year One allows full refunds...In the cases of the dashes "You get what you payfor" no shortcuts on this one......

Here is a close-up so you can see the grain.  I got mine from Dave at Roseville.

Is that a stock metal core dash or a plastic core?

Just received mine from Roseville. It looks great but there are definitely issues with it. First and most annoying is having to drill all the holes for the speaker, ac vents, etc. Secondly having to cut out all the excess foam near the cluster. Its not too hard but IMO should be a little better produced for the insane high price. Nerve racking when you have to drill and exacto around a soft part that cost that much.

I guess I should expand and give some credit though. I worked with John at Roseville to get the part and I can say hands down some of the best service I have come across. Excellent communication. The trimming and drilling I think are partially the fault of some old warped parts. Its a great pad but dont expect to just assemble it with nasa precision.

Just Dashs will give you a perrrectttt.....Dash ready to bolt on,  no trimming or fuss....worth $900.00 , but you will need a core....

I dunno; maybe for a '71-'74 pad style, JD is okay, but on '70 models, I can spot them 20' away.  WAY too puffy looking.  Doesn't look OEM at all.

I think the UR pads on a metal frame look the most OEM.

Do you have a pic of the 2 so we can compare, Is the 70 pad a diff. pad than the later models? I think later they had sharper lines.....

Cuda 1970 and challenger dash are differant , one has stiches and the cuda does not... the Chally dash has much crisper lines, anyone have a UR pic of a 1970 cuda dash?

I tried a JD pad & it was worse than the one we removed , the UR pad was far better in 2 builds I did but no pix with me here in Panama
