I have a '69 Cutlass S and I had a dash pad with the gauges and the whole 9 yards lined up to buy from a guy off of the forum and he sold them out from under me. Now I'm really in a pinch and I really need some help finding these parts that I need. I'm further looking for a '70 cutlass ram air hood and the vacuum controlled air cleaner to match. Lastly I desperately need a steering wheel. ANY and all help is greatly appreciated. My email is thybigwheel@gmail.com if you would like a more timely response.

FYI, if it helps with your search, the 1968-69 pads are the same. There are two types, with and without the vent cutouts. The 1969 hardtop and convertible cars used the A/C-style pads even in non-A/C cars. There were different vents used at the ends and a blank plate in the center. A 68 A/C pad will work for this. Also, non-A/C pads on cars with vent windows (ie, all 68s and 69s with "post" doors, like the VC) will not have the vent cutouts and will not work for a hardtop. Good luck with your search.

 

I have a nice dash pad from a 69 Cutlass S so it has the AC cut outs in it. It's black in color, no cracks and the vinyl is not dried out. It should get a fresh coat of dye on it to make it look really nice. There are 2 very small dimples, one each near a gauge but there is no hole. They might come out with a little heat but they are not that bad and could be left alone. $200 plus shipping if you are interested. Let me know and I can get you a few photos.

I couldn't get the last posted dash pad bought before someone else snatched it. If anyone has information or has a dash pad or any of the aforementioned parts and could let me know that would be great.

 

lucky you
dirt cheap $300

hardly any cracks

That's a 68 pad. It doesn't have any vents.

 

well, the shtruggle continues, I guess.
post #3 looks like a good avenue to pursue then.

I have 1 or 2 collecting dust but... they are not done collecting yet, the OP didn't state location which to me means an entire day of boxing and shipping rather than in-person pickup, the condition is never as good as a buyer wants, etc. I get sore just thinking about it.

 

lucky you even if you need one with portals

I have the rallye dash from my 69 442 hardtop non AC car? Would that work for you?

 

Chris,


I can't open the link even though I'm logged into FB. If this is Tweed's post then I linked this thread to it so hopefully Tweed contacts the OP if the pad is decent

 

Mine us red, no cracks , with air vents. Non AC 69 442 hardtop. Is this what you need?

 

"Tweed Vorhees " is what it says, yes
I thought anyone could see that link, sorry.
It looks like the same thing seen above by Chesrown... It's so hard to keep all the name and screen names straight.

 

Octania,
This is TWEED , Chesrown
