The dash pad on my '57 Imperial needs to be redone. I suppose Just Dashes is the only source for having this done?

Location: Northen Virginia		They don't do it as far as I know, finding good ones is what most people do. Those guys in Norway said they can do one, but I not sure if they ever did it. They are also people who re-upholstered with vinyl, but the stitches are visible everywhere, it is virtually impossible to form that dash in one piece, and the results are not very close to the original "one piece" configuration.

Location: NY & VT		RD Autoline makes dashes in Sweden for FL and other cars, and I believe Bo in AZ sometimes distributes them?
I bought one for my '58 Olds and they are perfect. It was cheaper than Just Dashes by about $300 too.

Location: The Great Northwest		RD Autoline made the one in my 61 NYer. It was much better than the ones I have seen produced by Just Dashes and significantly lower priced. They would be my first choice for dashpads................

Location: Alberta		The Dash pad I put in the 57 D500 was ordered from Just Dashes it was perfect and packaged properly they advise you to install it within 7days of receiving it as the material may distort or twist as it ages. This is an extruded mouldable process therefore the pressure release of the material with aging could and will take on it's own shape if not installed as recommended.
