Re: Just dashes
 
I was thinking of sending a 69 GTO dash to them. Back 7-8 years ago when I built my car, they were asking around $600. If a 68 Camaro dash is $400 now, I can imagine a 69 GTO dash would be around a grand?

Anyone had one of those done lately?

Does anyone know why they dont do ANYTHING for the 69 Camaro? Seems like a huge market to skip out on.

Tommy:

You're correct. They won't touch the 69 camaro pads. The explanation I received was the 69 pads had a one year only engineering design of plastic injected base/structure backing that, regardless the care given, or the condition of the pad/structure, warped and distorted over time. Since Just Dashes guarantees their work, (for fit and function) they were constantly loosing out on the 69s because they were returned to JD citing poor fit. Sort a deminishing returns kid of scenario for JD...
Options: Pony up over a grand and a half for a NOS Dash Pad. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif One that has a big blemish right in the middle of the pad (production flaw on all NOS pads for 69s).

Or,

Repo. From what I hear, the repo is not bad – fits reasonable well, and doesn’t require a second mortgage to purchase. I think that's what I'll be going with on my project.

A friend of mine had them do a '69 Judge dash last year. It turned out nice, but turnaround time was almost a YEAR if I recall correctly?

Same sort of deal with SMS door panels out of Oregon. Nice results, but a lot of phone calls and waiting are possible.

Just Dashes did my '67 427 Comet dash, complicated pad with Ford perforated speaker holes. Work was superb, price was strong but I am very satisfied. I am just in the process of sending them my '70 Z/28 deluxe door panels to redo. They are not reproduced so this is the only route to go on these pieces. Anyone else had these panels done ?

George, I have deluxe panels for a 70 Z that I need to have done as well and will be interested in your results.
