They did a 70 Judge dash for me... superb work, I would not hesitate to send another.
I will have them do my headrests, dash, armrests, and pillar posts on my 68 GTO. Their headrests are the best that I have seen.

I sent them a dark green dash pad for my 70 Nova that some other company butchered (wrong grain and wrong shade of green) They did a fantastic job in recovering it. I will be using them again for my '68 Chevy II dash pad.

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. 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.

They must do 70-72 Chevelle dashes, right? Anyone use them for their 70-72 dash pad?

Peter,

Yes, I received my dash back and not someone elses. The dash was for a 70 Nova with A/C.

Good luck!

They did my 73 SD TA dash and it turned out great. Expensive and takes awhile but I don't know of anyone else that does it.

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?
