Custom Classic Trucks: New dash Pad!!!

Just got my copy today, and not sure if anyone has seen this... but http://www.justdashes.com now has a dash pad for our trucks that has a place to mount 3 gauges, looks real cool to me.

Price on that dash pad I heard was $629.00 I could be wrong though.

I don't like it. Too ricey.

Edit:

Just got off the phone with Just Dashes. I stand corrected.

"Price is $395.00 for black, colors add $50. And it will be available in about a month."

That probably would look better if it had the Autometer gauges in the instrument cluster too. I just ordered a new stock dash pad for mine.

Ditch the pods (or make another pad without them) and lessen the overhang then it might work. The full to the wind-shield is kind of nice and smooth..

But that's just my opinion.

Haven't we been seeing this dash pad for about a year now?
I coulda sworn every time some one finds this dash...they say it is almost ready.
Whats up with these people? I mean, i don't want one, never would. But they've been promising them for over a year now.

Blue69 is right. Lessen the overhang!. That looks bad.

First impression is, it's cool!! Like others have said tho, after closer inspection, it looks like a visor hanging out that far!! And where are you going to mount the speaker?? I don't see a grid for it on top. I do like the idea of gauges up in that area, BUT, they would have to be more integral with the existing dash lines. Just my humble, lonely opinion.
