Although I personally have not used the dash sold by Dean, I have seen 2
examples on cars and they are BETTER than original! A bit
pricey but for complete restoration, they are great.
Stan sells a great looking fiberglass repro for less money and I have 2 of
those . Each has it's merits and both Dean and Stan
are reliable suppliers (my personal opinion).
