Ah, yeah, you may want to look for a new dash... Keep an eye out on Ebay, CL even on here, if you can get a decent COMPLETE dash from another member, then stick a good dash cover over that, you'll be in bizness.....

IMO, why waste your money on a used dash? It might not be cracked today but its still going to be over 20 years old. I had my dash re-done by Just Dashes, cost around $1500. I've also seen them on one of the vendor sites for around $1000, but not sure who he was getting them through.

And will probably crack again with in 2yrs.
Justdashes is a big joke, I used them 1 time and will never use them again or advise anyone to use them.
Sent them a dash for a 77 GrandPrix, was quotes $850 to repair and recover it, and a 2 week turn around. 6 (yes 6) months later I get the dash back, wrong color, and very poor job of repairs. And yes I called the often to find out what the hold up was, and the $850 quote turned into $2200!
They did not get paid as they refused to fix what they had screwed up.
I ended up doing a color change on the dash and ate the job, and it cracked 6 months later.

i grabbed a full dash cap for mines from ebay, but later ended up wrapping it in carpet from walmart i think it turned out good

i used a glue gun from walmart the bigger one with the 2 heat settings to glue the fabric to the dash, and bondo to reinforce all the cracks on the dash, this was my first time doing somethin like this. i no other use fiber glass though, but here are pixs and also one with the dash cap installed there paintable 2.
