...$400, $600, for a fiberglass dash board? Someone is on drugs.



Doc, who are you to insinuate a price? At this point, you are not welcome on this post anymore to me. And now Glassman has taken the ball and run with it. What a shame. Make your own dash, name the price and sell it. Until then, go away from this post. Let me speculate a price now...$30 bucks. I think I am owed an apology.

Sorry to offend you or anybody else. Most people don't realise the cost of making just the mold. The time , the effort, the advertising. It all costs big bucks to break into a new market. It would be the same if I were to start making a Charger SRT hood. Mopar piece--YES! New market--YES! Good luck with your new dash board and until I have that item on my list, I will send people your way , only if it is a quality piece. Oh and take it easy on Doc, he forgot how to be sensitive. We are building the 66-67 Dodge Coronet and Charger fender molds right now in the slow season. Next molds are new hemi scoop molds then the another new mold that I can't mention at the present time. And again,Good luck on the new dash mold.

I can not beleive this. READ HIS FIRST POST!!! They want ideas on shape and pad and mounting. This tells me they are far from knowing any of your questions. Man you people need to stop discourging people from attempting to make a new ptoduct that I for one need.


If the MODS did their job I would not be hitting the notify MOD button. LOL

Sean ...WHO ARE YOU coming on here quoting GLASS MAN and then pointing a finger at me ? .. And WHO ARE YOU coming on here announcing a "NEW F'glass A-body dash" without a price and availability ?

Now you say THIRTY DOLLARS each ? ... OK then .... I want FIFTY units.

GLASS MAN ... you seem to have forgotten the COSTS involved with making the PLUG(the part used to make the mold).

Me sensitive ? ... ...some people say I am OVERLY so.

well the first post was made back in july its now november..one of the post stated pictures on friday..i dont see any?

I was trying to be straight up and to the point..
not bickering at all..

4-5 months old post.....looks like its a pipe dream..though...

just make the damn thing like a bare metal dash with out the dash pad or cutouts. all the factory stuff can just bolt on...
no cut outs for the guages or radio or a/c
then everyone can cut out the holes as they see fit..
they could even put holes in the top to attach a factory pad..
this seems pretty straight up to me?

I spoke with Sean the other day, he filled me in on the project. Seems that he has a custom "one off" dash being made for his own use and that the person who is doing the work is doing it in his free time at substantial cost (I.E. - In no hurry and not cheap) and that this was known up front. He related to me that if others were potentially interested (and patient) he could likely get the builder to make other subsequent dashes made at a substantially (yet currently unpredictable) lower cost. Seems like he's being pretty nice allowing other members to benifit from his efforts and legit to me? IMO it will be worth the wait if it all works out

I have one I bought from Al at a swap meet. Two piece, Dash then pad. I'll have to look at it again to see if it is flat or has factory type gauge panel. Mike

Why all the strife from everyone? I didn't 'bump' this post to the top from months old. Cheap, I don't know what you are meaning about it being a 'pipe dream'? Is this getting done in a timely manner?...to this point, no. Recently, (actually since about 1 week before Tony bumped the post) the guy I contracted has been back into the project and although he sent me some pics Saturday, the part needed some tweaking to make the dash look the way I wanted. So, things are finally moving along. It will have 'perimeter' negative outlines around the glove box, ashtray, and steering wheel tunnel areas. There will be some articulation up-top around the misc vents/grills. The glove box will include all articulation, including a knob. The dash pad will be cast into the mold. I am working with a vinyl graphics guy for a wrap-pad with texture. The mold SHOULD be cast this week. I will post updates as I get them. Blessings.

My intent wasnt to cause stife...
nor was my pointing out that it was not a new post.
I was trying to get straight to the point...
i appearently was taken as derogatory..
In my case.
I have the windshield out of the race car..
if there is a dash available..now is the time for me to get one ..and install it... before i go through putting in a new windshield gasket..that i waited 4 months to get off back order..lol..

i figured speak now or forever hold my peace..
looks like ill wait a lil longer before installing my windshield...lol...

carry on...Im all ears..
