Looking for a 70-72 Skylark non-AC dash pad. The one I'm interested is one with no issues as far as cracks, wrapping, dents, missing or broken mounting studs. At this point color is not an issue. I will step up for the right dash pad, Thanks, IDOXLR8.
Dennis was looking for a pad, Doug answered and posted pics. Now they look mostly AC, Dano recently posted some , too. Where you been Al? It's been raining these things! http://www.v8buick.com/index.php?threads/dash-pad-70-72.355709/
I guess a sleep! I had issues with my job when our maintenance company changes owners, lost my job and out of work for a good wile and getting my two kids on the right path. That is over now and now it's my turn!
I'm really sorry about your job, Al. People will see this and try to help. Got to play cars now. Stay safe!
Right after up righting the ship I did a 79 Corvette frame on restoration and sold that to forward restoration to the next level on my 72 GS 455 4-Speed! Stay well my friend!
I have seen a few but may be looking for the unavailable! I'm looking for a mint dash and as everyone knows that is a tuff order beings how old our cars are and I do get it and some members that have an extra dash that are nice may be unwilling to let it go, I get that too. If this doesn't pan out I will be looking for a laser straight excellent core to send to "Just Dashes".
Question for my Buick brothers, Do you all think my request is unrealistic? I know our dash pads do have issues and think I may be looking for some thing unavailable.
Thy're out there especially if you don't mind dying it. One of the ones I just sold was darn near perfect & I have a couple for my cars that are also darn close.
As I posted at this point color is not an issue. I have a painter I've known for many years that could change a color plus I have a guy that does my interior work. The big thing is being straight, no dents, or cracks.
I think I will be looking for a laser straight core and go with "Just Dashes". I'm very fussy and there work looks pretty good!
I'm looking for a straight non-AC dash pad core. Cracks are not a problem, just needs to be laser straight and no broken or missing hardware.
Thanks for your follow up! Before I spend a thousand dollars to restore a Skylark dash I want to sent an excellent core, thanks again, IDOXLR8.
I have one that's really good and one with a crack in it.The good one is a light brown,the other one,with the crack,is black.Bruno.
Thanks for your follow up! Color is not important. Condition of the structure is paramount. Being super straight even across the gauge cluster and having all mounting pins, studs and clips in place. Knowing you a picture is not needed because I know you know these cars inside and out.
