Holy Grail dash pad

I purchased what I believe to be the last factory dash pad for a 79-80 left in inventory by a dealer in the US. Not to toot my own horn but TOOT TOOT!!!!! Was still in the original box. Dealer said it was factory sealed until he opened to wrap in bubble wrap prior to shipping to me.

I have no intention to sell it right now. I would rather enjoy the fact I was able to get it for my 80 c10.

What it cost you a arm and leg or your first born child?

Not even close! I got a really good deal. Very pleased with the outcome. I was expecting it to be some other color and possibly even discolored from sitting so long. This thing looks like it was made a week ago.

I sure will. Hopefully not much longer but I said that 2 years ago when I started the project. I just couldn't pass it up to buy. I know it wouldn't be there forever.
