My SOR dashpad arrived today

My new too expensive reproduction dashpad arrived today. It does look nice and will greatly improve the piggies look. The cost sure hurt and it is for the later models dash, but it will look good.l

I will post pics when I have it unpacked.

Yeah, a little pricey, but beats the hell out of a fu**ed up looking POS. I put one on a few years ago, and it has been great. Even after baking in the hot desert sun. I think you'll be satisfied.

The new 55 I bought came with one installed. It has been sitting in the sun for several years in storage (with windows half down) and it still looks great. This is on a '73... not sure what years are for early or late dashes, but I would like to see a pic when you're done.
