Is this Dash restorable?

[Tim Lovelock]

Before I hop in the car for a 6 hr drive to retrieve this dash and some other bits. Would you guys consider this dash restorable. Cheers Tim

Steel is steel. Glass is glass.

Are you doing this for the original holes to line up with your recipient vehicle, or is there something on the dash that you need?

[Bob Carriere]

....and get the steering wheel while at it..... and every other bit you can bargain for.... heck the whole dash assembly....with switches.

Everything is restorable just a matter of $$$ and skills.

You will need s new glass cut and a decal for all the numbers and guage.

In Canada..... Ebay value.... as is.... hoping the speedo needle is still there maybe 15 to 25 dollars.... then shipping approx. $14 across USA. Fully rebuilt around $450 US + s&h

At worst it will donate good parts.

Bob

PS.... why don't you bring a trailer and take the whole thing home... or you will regret it.

Terry....go to bed.....

Hi Terry, thought I'd grab it as its the early dash before the updated ones were put in. My project has the later dash but missing bits and pieces.
Cheers Tim

Hi Bob, yes I spotted the horn button in particular. I'd love to haul the lot back but it's miles away, another state..... So a trip, a chat and see what I can come up with. Cheers

[Tim Lovelock]

Thanks Gents, I apogise if I havnt responded personally working of my phone.
There are certainly parts I could do with, others without, logistically hauling it home as a donor would be easier. Here are some more pics. Cheers Tim

Tim, don't forget to get details of chassis number, and any data on the dash plate... even better if the ARN is still on the front shell.

And a border raid, eh...?

[Tim Lovelock]

Lol, will do Kieth....ARN, chassis No., ok!!!

Hi Tim - I do these all the time, either restore or scratch build. I will PM you details.

Tim,

Looking at a Chev dash I got from Bob a few years back at a very reasonable restoration cost, better than new!

Grab it and send it to South Australia as soon as the project timetable and funds allow, you will not be sorry.
