Looking for dash pictures

[TeemuM]

I am fabricating fibreglass dash to replace beat-up dash that came with my car. Now I am looking for close up pics for dash as mine was missing some pieces etc. Especially that left hand corner area that I have marked green. That is some reference picture that I found with google images, but haven´t found any around that corner. And I am talking about 68-> dash.



Thanks for help!

A friend of mine just finished the dash on his restoration
Expensive but way less than the JD reproduction

This thing started way worse than the OP’s dash

Have any details on how it was done?

Used the same process and bought all the products and equipment as in that video
His dash was much more damaged and the left corner was practically non existent
Looks easy but it’s lots of work to do it right, his body man (he owns a dealership) has put more than 16h for that repair

I'd be curious as to the cost difference between this and the method Just Dashes uses.

I repaired mine two years ago using a procedure that was posted here. I ground down in a little more aggressively than the above video, filled with great stuff, ground it down slightly and feathered it out a lot. The next step was Bumper Bite, a flexible filler. That is sanded smooth, then painted with a flexible paint, then an aerosol texture paint. One word of advice is to reinstall it before the final fill and finish steps.

Thanks for pictures! Unfortunately those are missing that LH corner. I am currently making mold buck and I am little bit unsure is this LH corner looks like it supposed to be. It does look different than that just dashes, but does it look same as it was originally? Or is threre some differences berween model years? Mine is -68.
