We all see a lot of restored B bodies with completely new dashes. Where are guys buying the lower dash pads and glove box door pads ?
Who offers lower dash pads/ glove box pad ?

Dodge or Plymouth? 68/69 are pads and 70 are moulded plastic.....
No one offers reproduction pads......People are reusing good originals they find or have....

Classic Industries has lower set for 70 B body’s rally dashes.

Also PGclassic.com has them for 68-69 Chargers, no one produces the a/c pad as of yet.

69 Dodge. Thank you, guys. That’s what I thought. Amazes me that there are that many good gondition originals still out there. Is the 69 Charger and 69 Coronet pad the same ? Also worth mentioning, my car was equipped with AC.

Bought mine years ago on eBay when the pickins were good. If you have a core, Just Dashes can restore them.

Pull'm back into place and re-glue them. Wood block shows how I got my ashtray area back into correct shape for proper gaps around the tray.

Thank you, mine are in great condition. But, I want to change my dash to white. I was warned about B body parts before I bought this car. That guy wasn’t inaccurate. I also own a 1950 Chevy. Parts for it are far more accessible. A lot cheaper too. That’s a 19 year older car, also. Goes to show you how few parts are out there for these beauties. But, once again. A lot of nice lower dash pads installed on restored cars. Like you mentioned. Those pads have to be from “The pickins were good” time period.

Regarding what I mentioned above. No one is allowed to get near or touch my front fenders, lol ! May never find those.

PG classics sell reproduction junk.....Furthermore, I would never recommend a part that is not correct.......Hence, no one reproduces a 68/69 Dodge pads with the "stitching".....
Tonys Parts aka Tony D'agnostino is coming out soon with a dodge set that is supposed to be correct. There is no tentative date last I heard but is suppose to happen.....

Yes...they are the same........
If you are going white then you best shot is to find a tan set if possible.......The biggest issue with the old pads is shrinkage and the glove box door pad was the worst....
You should be able to find some good used ones....
