Red Interior
« on: August 07, 2008 - 10:22:04 PM »
I was wondering where I can get a reproduction Red dash pad? 
 
 I would love to have original equipment but I havn't seen many red dash's for sale.
   
  Actually looking for all the red components on the interior.

I hear good things about the metro interior panels you should just save up and buy those when you're ready. The odds of finding a usable used set of door panels are very slim. For the last few years I've kept my eyes open for them and never seen any let alone nice ones. As far as the dash pad goes same thing Just dashes does them in red I'm pretty sure. I've only seen a couple of decent black original dashes over the last several years and I actually have one in my basement but I've been reluctant to sell it because I'm sure as soon as is hits the sun after 30 years it will probably crack immediately. I'm still planning on going to Carlysle and can let you know if I see anything there. PM me your number so I have it in case I see something. Chris

I hear ya.   Thought I had the money at tax time to get the dash and door panels but things went south.
So, I am planning on getting metro dash and doors.

Still need all the other little parts.  kick panels, A's, steering wheel, trim, etc.

Thanks.

Ultimate Rides can make you a reproduction dashpad in red

A local paint shop that carries PPG/Ditzler and/or SEM products should be able to mix you up the correct interior paint and dye for the A-pillars and other hard plastic as required.

The red seat backs are painted and have some pretty bad chipping.
I can paint anything if I wanted to.  Plus, I have asked for pictures of the red seat backs and the fella won't send any new pics to me.

I will end up getting the dash and door panels through metro when I have that large coin.

Right now I'm trying to piece together all the small stuff out of original red parts.
I know that is probably going to be impossible but I am still trying.

At least there weren't any pieces that you guys remember seeing just sitting on the ground all lonely at the swap.   

Thanks yal  !!

Thanks Brotow, I have contacted the seller to see if they are faded or if the camera was showing the color wrong.
If they are red, I will be interested.

I sure appreciate every lead I can get!  Thanks

Says they came out of a 1973, red wasn't an option in 73 was it?  I thought by then it was down to black carpets and your choice of white or black seat covers...maybe I'm wrong.
