66/67 Cutlass/442/F85 Instrument Panels

3 years ago I started back in this great hobby after being out for 30 years.
I bought a 66 Cutlass Convertible just like the one Dad gave me when I was 14 .And just started throwing Money at her.
The first thing that had to go was the Instrument Panel.
I now have another Hobby of buying and restoring Instrument Panels for 66/67 Olds Cutlass/442/F85s.
If anyone is interested .This is the type of work I do.
I have over 15 cores and all the components that go along with them.
If interested in a restoration or has anything IP related for sale give me a call.

Thanks in advance

What is the method of plastic chroming you use?

is it the electro plate/vacume thing, or is it spray chrome?

i would sure love to have my dash restored, but probably too rich for my blood.
curiosity would get to me anyway, so i might as well ask now- If you don't mind me asking, what does a fully restored one go for? (assuming someone provides you with a not trashed core)

rroth01. I am looking to either change the insert on my 66 or purchase a new one. I am converting the car to floor shift correctly and want to remove the little prnd area on the bottom for the column shift. On a console car its boxed in and black. What do you think or suggestions.

I have a few floor shift Gauge Bezels.The only problem is this..Will the paint and condition match?Example Chrome Plating/Tone of Paint.I can restore a whole IP for you and trade the Gauge Bezel .
Let me know if that helps.
