Thanks to all of you who suggested using the RD Autoline dash pad. Mine is still in its box. I did order it last May and it arrived in January. To their credit, RD Autoline did not charge me any money until my new pad was ready to ship. This was a good experience compared to some other supplier that I could, but won’t, mention. I also want to thank all of you who replied with tips and suggestions from your experiences.
Regards
bill

Re your replacement dashpad, have you considered RD Autoline in Sweden? Their replacment dashpads are top quality and looks as new. Several years ago, Mike Burke had brought over supplies of them - '60 and '61/'62 - but he's sold them all. I have one of them in my F.
I am replacing the dash pad on my 300G. I read through the blog from Just Dashes to give me a leg up on this project. I got to the rear view mirror removal, working through the speaker hole, even the radio is out. I tried to get a 1 3/8 socket on the mirror nut. Just dashes indicated that the nut was 1 3/8. I just couldn’t get a socket on it, so I cut a perfectly fine 1 3/8 combination wrench in half, it was too long to fit inside the dash. So after wasting a lot of time and effort, I finally realized the nut is 1 7/16. Just in case any of you have to remove the rear view mirror.
Regards
bill
