If you need the dash pad they are reproduced in black and from what I hear are pretty good. Most dashes need resto and are often seen on EBAY and Craigslist and people are always parting these cars. You should be able to find one. 67 was a bad year for steering wheels. To find an uncracked one is difficult and would be expensive...

Oldsmaniac, appreciate the feedback, the dash was in good shape just needed plastic to be re-chromed, sent it off to justdashes in CA. I looked at putting in a wood Nardi wheel instead, but have yet to decide. Thanks again!

Yeah prob would be a better choice than Just Dashes due to $$$$$$$ they charge.

I have several 66-67 cars I am parting out in Redmond,, Oregon. Steering wheels are never not cracked. I suggest either a restored one or use a rosewood or later rally type steering wheel.
Are you after a specific color of dash?

Thanks

I'll second this one: Ron did mine and I can provide pics if desired. Fantastic job / reasonable $

Wow those pics looks great that Ron did, wish I had jumped on here earlier I already paid $75 to ship to just dashes. Hopefully it all works out, glad I am on here now, when I need help down the road. Larry thanks for the note on the wheel you and I have connected via email...thanks to all for the help, I am looking forward to getting this 67 finished, it has 257,000 miles on it all from the original owner in central washington. Amazing it was in the shape it was.

I put a 1968 style "wood" 3 spoke stainless GM wheel on mine. looks great. And for the most part stock. I think I used a hub from a 67 camaro to fit the column diameter correctly. A horn cap from a 70 4 spoke will top it off niceley. you can even get those horn caps color-keyed to match if u want! Dont frustrate yourself... Restoring a 67 wheel always seems to end up in it cracking again. wasted too many hours on that one.
