This looks cool!!!

I think these look pretty sweet for our trucks, found it on justdashes.com. They dont post any prices though. Anybody know how much one of these costs, or have some pics of one installed?

they are like $350 plus shipping for black and an additional $50 for a color match. No gauges and I think it takes 2 1/4" gauges.

Imagine having a factory tach/vacuum instrument cluster with one of those dashes added. Three gauge pods to fill your instrumentation fancy. bling bling

Hopefully they are finally ready. They have had them on their website for better than a year and a half but everytime I called they weren't ready. Like previously stated, they do not come with gauges and 2 1/4" openings. And if it's true that they are $350.00 plus shipping, then that's cheaper than what they previously stated.

THEY STOLE MY IDEA! Or at least they beat me to it. I have the mold pulled for a similar style dash. Mine will not have the gauges but will cover the top of the dash. I pulled the mold and was going to give it shape with insolite but im waiting to get my door panels to that point as well and do it all at the same time.

Classic trucks did an article on these dashes including an install a couple months ago. I like the idea of the dash pad covering the whole dash. I don't like the idea of having to pay well over $300 for one.

I've read mag articles on other Just Dashes repro dashes. They can form a dash from just the metal strip in an original dash. Maybe only as long as they have the mold for the dash in question. One thing Just Dashes claims is that they use better vinyl and a foam that doesn't expand or deteriorate (can't remember which) like oem dash foam, so they claim their dashes are more resistant to non-impact cracking. I don't know if that's true, but it sure should be for the price. I had them estimate making a dash for my TravelAll using the original dash's metal. Over the phone, they said it would cost around $300, but only a first hand look would suffice for making a firm estimate.

I think they make a great bling bling product and I'm glad they have ventured into making an improved dash for 67-72 GM trucks. More options never hurt since options don't empty wallets all by themselves. I hope to afford what they offer some day. I want to run an A/F ratio meter, oil temp, and diff or tranny temp guages. Or maybe a vacuum gauge if I don't get a vacuum gauge instrument cluster along with a tach cluster.
