here is a pic of the flamed dash cover by buddy got in Moultry at the swap meet, does anyone know where to get it?

bigblock73 · 03-10-2009, 09:38 AM

I am sure it was custom made, I haven't seen those mass produced.

justpball · 03-10-2009, 09:40 AM

it is abs plastic ,so it is not custom...it cost lots of money to get tooling done for a mold for abs...

bigblock73 · 03-10-2009, 10:53 AM

Well, then it is a new product I have not personally seen.

andrewmp6 · 03-10-2009, 10:54 AM

Yeah its a custom part or something brand new we have no clue about.

jchav62 · 03-10-2009, 10:58 AM

Looks pretty cool. I'm sure you can have a upholsterer do that.

justpball · 03-10-2009, 12:28 PM

not to get off topic, but does he have problems with the steering wheel getting extremely hot in the summer? I've often wondered that about those solid metal wheels?

slugish · 03-10-2009, 09:57 PM

does anyone know where the dash pad strip came from , or custom made also ?

flamingbig10 · 03-11-2009, 12:33 AM

JC Whitney did sell them a few years ago, but they don't anymore
