White dash pads? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Im sure Ive seen them but cant find one anywhere. Will I have to dye mine or can I just buy one somewhere? Thanks...corn

I've never see a white or near white pad. Closest would probably be some sort of tan. I have see parchment/off white arm rests, but never heard of dash pads that color. Maybe one of the elders or venders might know.

acording to LMC all trucks with white int. had black dash pads and carpet

**special-K** · 02-11-2006, 11:18 PM

LMC is wrong*.The parchment interiors had sandlewood dash pad and steering wheel unless w/tilt.Maybe black was the color for 71/72.My`72 has black,but that`s because it has tilt.All tilt wheels were black.Never a white dash pad,though.
*Their books aren`t as accurate a reference as most think.

i agree special-k i've found them to be wrong or very generalized on many isues

Nope. My 72 blazer has a parchment interior, with a sandlewood dash pad. LMC is just plain wrong.

If I'm not mistaken, the longhorn had the parchment dash pad.

Longhorn Man · 02-12-2006, 03:58 AM

Woah, after looking, i guess it was tan. Been so long since I've even seen that dash pad, I thought iot was off white.

**special-K** · 02-12-2006, 09:33 AM

Men tend to look beyond what`s right in front of them.Hence,woman trouble,lol.
The tilt wheel trucks had black to match the column/wheel.LMC doesn`t make Sandlewood pieces.Maybe that`s why they say they were black?

I will also agree to that.

bouncytruck · 02-12-2006, 11:26 AM

Sandalwood dashpads are getting hard to find. My understanding is that they don't make reproductions of them. MotherTruckers was carrying them. My wife got me one for christmas (not yet installed). She ended up buying it from Early Classics because MotherTruckers was out of them. When it arrived (from early classics), it was in a Brother's box. There are no indications that it is NOS, but no indications that it isn't either.

My 72 blazer with parchment interior has a black dash pad and tilt too..

muddpile · 02-12-2006, 02:22 PM

My 72 had parchment door panels and seat, orange plaid inserts, parchment sunvisors and clips, but a black dash pad, steering wheel and carpet. I think the highlanders all had that combo in 72.

corn · 02-12-2006, 03:29 PM

Wow, jumped in today & saw a bunch of responses. Thanks anyway. I guess Ill have to dye one white...corn

**special-K** · 02-12-2006, 04:04 PM

See the"How Many Board Members" thread in General Discussion.

John @ BROTHERS · 02-13-2006, 11:54 AM

Hey Guys, We do stock the "Sandlewood" dash pads. We don't sell many, but we do have them on the shelf boxed and ready to go.

Zumo · 02-13-2006, 03:29 PM

Just get one and have it wrapped in white vinyl.

**Already Gone** · 02-13-2006, 06:04 PM

corn · 02-13-2006, 07:19 PM
