Covered dash

I had an idea the other day about possibly covering my dash in leather. Not the whole dash but the top and around the sides, maybe like a late 60s early 70s cars (Camaro, Nova etc.). I could use some high density 1/4" foam and make it a padded dash, not sure yet.

I searched but maybe have not used the correct terms but could not find anything. Has anyone ever done or seen anything like this?

I did find this pic but it looks like the whole dash might be covered.

Re: Covered dash

That's the one that I was thinking of. Not sure whose it is, but it's one of my all time favorite dashes.
