Help IDing this dash pad - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can anyone help me ID this dash pad I bought in the past. Trying to determine if it's aftermarket or NOS and roughly the year or model it could be for. It's not a super cheap re-pop because it has the full metal frame. But I'm not sure if I'd call it NOS though. Maybe just a good aftermarket. It has the cut out for the windshield mounted antenna, 2 defrosters and VIN plus the perforated area for a speaker.

I feel I would have bought this for my 76 Silverado but now I'm not sure.

I think it belongs in my garage is what it is. I think it is a 79-80. I think older ones do not have the cut out for the vin. Not sure if is aftermarket or nos. I have an after market other the metal backing. Either way it sounds good

That's the same thing I was thinking. Did some searching with that information and now I believe I bought it from Classic Parts. Wish I could find the receipt to know for sure. Thanks for your input.

Mines an 86, and it has the cutout for the VIN. But either way, if it's not NOS, then it's an excellent aftermarket. If it is factory original, it should have the part number stamped on the underside. But from the photo, it really doesn't look my underside, and mines original.

The real question is where did you get from a private party or a store.....if its was a store which one and how much? (If you dont mind telling the price)....either way looks good if your selling im buying

Sounds like some good info. I couldn't find any kind of factory part number (just the one number in yellow paint/color) on it so I was already leaning towards Aftermarket but I didn't have anything else to reference. Searching Ebay now to look at proclaimed OEM pads to compare.

If I had my receipt or any record of the purchase I'd gladly share the seller and price I paid. And I can't discuss selling anything as I haven't renewed my subscription to the site. Don't want to anything to be misconstrued as an attempt to circumvent the board rules.
