Any gold dash pads available from someone? As close to NOS as possible, must be perfect, no flaws. Also F85 steering wheel, same condition, same color. Trim code is 914, Champaigne, on the cowl tag.

Has anyone ever coated a black dash pad with lighter color? I have a perfect black one that I can dye but would rather have one of the right color. Trade maybe? PM me.

 

I colored a blue/green one with primer and then color matched paint which was lacquer. came out good. I also did the steering wheel which was black.

 

Go to a good Qulaity Paint Shop and Have them mix up some SEM Interior Paint.Chances are they have the paint code but they will ask you to do a test sample.
Wash it down with Denatured Alchohol few times have a few sips .and shoot it and the glove box door.
I use an Air Brush from Hrbor Freight

 

You painted the dash pad with lacquer? Didn't it chip? Your interior color is the exact same as my son's car, same steering wheel and all. Looks great. Do you remember the paint mix code? Do you have another radio delete plate?

 

I went to the place that will sell you color mixed paint in spray cans. I told them paint code and sent a strip of original gold vinyl and told them I wanted paint for the dash pad. The can that came was labeled lacquer.... so far so good with it. I got it from Tower paint. Dont remeber the code.

 

Radio delete plates are available repro. I have seen them on Ebay...

 

There also is some companies around like "color glow" that car dealers use to change interior part colors or do minor repairs. Their work is usually very good and wears a long time.

 

Looks like your car was a manual floor shift. Was it factory? Our car was a six with a Jetaway. Will be a 425 with a Muncie. Floors were toast so we are replacing both sides complete. Your dash looks great. They probably mixed you SEM for the dash pad, not lacquer.

 

Yep it is a 442 and I have a build thread in Major builds titled 67 Trac Pac, thanks, I think it came out good for someone who did not know what they were doing! That F85 with the 425 and Muncie will be nice, If not already done you may want to upgrade the fuel line to 3/8. We did a BB swap in a 64 that was a 6 cyl and it would starve for fuel at full throttle at about 50 MPH.
