Over 6 weeks with 67 views and 0 responses - Guess nobody has used their system. I should take that as a message.
Guess I'll keep looking. It's very frustrating the variations in pricing for these conversion kits.

Everyone - thanks for the fast responses!

I decided black was the way to go.
Mark- one more question - semi-gloss or gloss black?

General Discussion / Dash paint color

« on: July 21, 2006, 10:48:38 PM »

I have a 68 327 Cordovan Maroon and have a question regarding the correct color for the dash. The interior is standard black. I have noticed some photos on the web of dashes that have been painted to the cars exterior color. Was this  original in some cars, or simply restorer's choice. I have no connection to this ebay listing, but it does show a Cordovan Maroon with a Maroon dash.
ebay id: 330008984411 (see 15th picture for best view)


I appreciate any comments!
