Shady Speedway Posted 18May, 2016 Report Share Posted 18May, 2016 So my windscreen is up for replacement on my 1976."While I'm in there" I've had thoughs of changing my cracked dash.Has anybody got advise or stories to share on sourcing a new or recon crash pad. Traps, cost.....Typically I start these jobs thinking "this should take a week or two" when I really know I should say months. Not because I don't have the time. Rather I'm very fussy about this kind of thing.I will do all the work myself. So info on suppliers is greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance.

I`ve looked into this extensively and tried to get in contact with Pro-Stitch a few times . When I did they mentioned they were not taking on anymore work for the year . Keeping this is mind SStrimming in Melbourne will be doing mine when the class is out . Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
