65 Dart Wagon Conversion to a Sedan Delivery
My wife made the remark that the top of the dash seemed kind of shiny. I said it’s supposed to have a suede finish that’s a dull finish, which it does not even come close. She asked if I could use something like a piece of medium blue vinyl from material that I bought for a long gone 67 Charger. I believe that would work, and also look like a modern dash as well.
Close up of a piece of the vinyl:
After masking the front of the dash, outer speaker holes, defroster vent holes and center speaker area,
did the spray glue and carefully positioned the piece of previously cut vinyl. I later later cut out all the holes.
After a quick cleaning of my light metallic blue dash pad, and a quick fit to see how it’ll all looks, i like it! I might get the paint supply mix up some dye to make it look better.
Today I got The paint supply to mix up a spray can of blue paint that would compliment the color of the vinyl. I painted a spare set of defroster vents and the center speaker cover and fit them. I Still need to paint the outer speaker grilles.
