I also decided to reuse the original dashpad since there were only two minor cracks by the front speaker grill screw holes - a common occurrence. Since it is around $800 plus $200 core charge to get a reproduction dash... and none are available now, I decided there are better things to spend my money on...like vintage mag wheels.

I wound up using some JB-Weld epoxy and gently pushed it in to the cracks with a tiny screw driver. Once it was filled, I waited for it to cure and then sanded. I then sprayed the entire dash with SEM Landau Black interior dye (I LOVE that paint - I put that s@$& on everything!). Here's the results.

Not bad from a foot away or so and now I don't have to mess with transferring the vin tag to a new dash pad (Stupid Chrysler design - lets rivet the vin to a removable part!!!)
