Post 56 dash board

My 56 dash board is in nice condition physically but the color is dirty. I have tried all konds of cleaners to no avail. It is Red and I am now thinking about dying it or painting it. Any suggestions and where can I find it.

Rich,

This is a tough call on an assembled car. The material cost for the dye and the etching material (recommended) is nearly the same as a new '55-'56 dash cover in your choice of color. Think this through. You know what your skill level and patience are better than anyone. Let that be your guide.

Everything you need regardless which route you choose, is available from Classic Auto Supply.

What ever you decide; it will be worth the effort.

Tom
