Thanks Rod, Yes Darren is in CA. We used DupliColor adhesion promoter primer then DupliColor vinyl and fabric flat black. Seems to spray good and is real tough.

Thanks Alan, I looked over the weekend and saw two used ones, musta missed them. I'll circle back and see if I can find them.

Todd,
I re-covered my '66 dash pad with a piece of marine vinyl from the local fabric store. Some spray adhesive and about an hour labor ended up costing me about $20. It even came out looking half-way decent!
Good luck on the build.

Thanks Don, This pad has a massive bolt hole in it, I can fill it and cover it but in the end I'm holding out hope to find a better used one. I may however have to go your route.

Mine had huge cracks on it so I shaved them down, then covered the cracks with duct tape to smooth it out before I covered it.

Didn't post any photos of the headers after I had them in my hands.
