I have a picture of it installed on the dash in my 69. I bought it from PY a month ago and really like it.

I bought some real Walnut Burlwood veneer......the actual real wood like U use for furniture or cabinets its about 1/42 thick. I then took each of my center console pieces and vacuum bagged (using epoxy as adhesive) some of the wood veneer to each piece. Then I painted it with automotive polyurethane clear coat......sand and buff. I am doing the same with my center dash piece and the center dash ashtray.....so far so good.

Alright I'm interested in this too. The part looks great! Can you post some pics of the installation?

Where did you buy the veneer? Any Part # on it.

What prep did you do on the old pieces before you applied it?
