85 dash pad
Anyone know where I can find a tan dash pad for my 85? Ford dealers sell them but they are 500 bucks and only come in gray. I havent seen anything else but those Coverlay overlays which I don't want to use. Of course junkyard trucks all have trashed ones. Any ideas?

Or you can paint the Ford one with a vinyl color spray, to match.
If the dash pad is not too badly damaged there are ways of repairing them, either by hire, or do it yourself kits sold in stores. One is usually expencive, and the other doesn't always give you satisfactory results.

NPD (an fte sponsor) sells a dash topper. it fits well, but mine (blue) did not match color perfectly. maybe you can find a color match paint if you are picky. pull original pad off, trim and glue down out of vehicle. $87 and change. Be careful of pads you find at the junk yard, sometimes they look really good, but are very thin and brittle and will fall apart immediately!
Good luck

Sorry, I can't do that. As a favor, a former co-worker gave me the access code. I can't share it.

I gotta see that. All the aftermarket door panels I've seen are over $100.

If you look in the classifieds in this forum, under 80-86 parts and vehicles for sale, you will find ads from 5/15 and5/16 from members parting out their vehicles. You might try contacting them and see if either has a dash pad worth using. I bought mine here for $30.00, black and perfect, and plan on painting it blue along with most of the interior parts. It's worth a shot, and as far as spraying the color on, at least one outfit offering aftermarket door panels, (I think it may be JC Whitney), sells black and charges $10. more for colors and states in their listing the colors are painted.
